The music on Quattro Stagioni's Cantio spans a period of seventy years, encompassing both David Monrad Johansen's Draumkvædet, published in 1922, and Knut Nystedt's The Conch, completed in 1993. All of the selections are twentieth-century Norwegian vocal pieces, and none has been available on record before.
