"This is the sixth disc on Dacapo to be dedicated to the singular music of the Faroese composer Sunleif Rasmussen ... The major work on this portrait disc is ... the Sonata for solo viola (identified as No 1 in the note) ... written for the prominent Faroese violist Jákup Lützen's debut recital ... Rasmussen's sonata hits home more with each successive hearing - it's an impressive major addition to the solo repertoire for this instrument. It's magnificently realised by its dedicatee and beautifully recorded ... Dacapo's generous promotion of Rasmussen is in no way simply a dutiful acknowledgement of a rare composer from one of Denmark's more isolated (albeit self-governing) territories. Rasmussen's music utterly transcends the local - he is without question a major Scandinavian figure and the inhabitants of his islands should be very proud of him"
