Dominick Argento: The Andrée Expedition
- Format: CD
- Release:
This is Brian Mulligan's debut solo album on the Naxos label. Andrée, Strindberg, and Frænkel began their expedition on July 11, 1897. Their records break off three months later. Thirty-three years later their bodies were discovered and returned to Sweden, at which time the diaries and notebooks of Andrée and Strindberg were published: most of the text for this cycle is taken directly from them. Frænkel left no account behind, but the text assigned is partially based on his companions’ writings.
