Reception
Guy Dammann gave a 5-star review in the Financial Times: "Striking, Superb!"[9]
Camilla Lundberg in the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter wrote: "A new opera has rarely struck so deeply" [Sällan har en opera träffat så djupt].[10]
Göran Forsling wrote in Seen and Heard International: "Sebastian Fagerlund has created a colorful score that powerfully comments, underlines and punctuates the text. The music is not melodious, but it is expressive and full of feeling."[11]
Reviewer Martin Lim wrote in the South China Morning Post: "Opera Autumn Sonata, adapted from the original Swedish film, is an explosion of musical color ...".[12]
Andrew Mellor reviewed the CD recording of Autumn Sonata in Gramophone: "Fagerlund's brooding, tension-ridden score is excellent at differentiating between Charlotte (her music all uppity and precious) and Eva (lost in a sea of loneliness and emotional damage) and grinding those elements together to deliver the opera's sucker punches."[13]
