About

The musical expression of German Romanticism is the theme of this disc. The trajectory of Schumann’s Konzertstück, Op.86, written for four horns and orchestra, goes from heroism to introspection. Two of his Symphonic Etudes Op.13 were orchestrated by no less a figure than Tchaikovsky, while Albert Parlow orchestrated four of Brahms’ most exciting Hungarian Dances.

Mendelsssohn’s Overture to his Ballad Opera Die Heimkehr aus der Fremde (Song and Stranger) embodies classical virtues. Anton Webern’s Langsamer Satz for string quartet has been vibrantly orchestrated by Gerard Schwarz.

Hans Pfitzner
, one of the last representatives of the movement, is represented by his concise, melodic Symphony in C major.
