The Norwegian conductor Bjarte Engeset is not a household name outside Scandinavia, but he has been responsible for a large number of top-notch recordings of new and neglected music from the Nordic countries. He is the chief conductor of Sweden's Dala Sinfonietta. Prior to his appointment at the Dala Sinfonietta in 2007, Engeset served as music director of a few Scandinavian ensembles. His list of guest appearances is long and international and includes full tours and recordings. Engeset has had an ongoing relationship with the Naxos label, recording a variety of mostly Scandinavian music with the Dala Sinfonietta, Malmø Symphony, and other groups. ~ James Manheim
