¡Einem: Philadelphia Symphony, Geistliche Sonate, Stundenlied
¡Franz Welser-Most (conductor), Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra
Description
[Machine Translation] Gottfried von Einem is a 20th century composer whose works have been very popular in Austria since the successful premiere of his opera "The Death of Danton" at the Salzburg Festival in 1947, and have been performed many times by many great composers such as Bohm, Karajan, and Sell. This album was produced to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Einem's birth in 2018 and features the "Philadelphia Symphony" conducted by Welser-Most. The Philadelphia Symphony was commissioned by the Philadelphia Academy of Music and was originally to be premiered in that city, but due to various circumstances, the Vienna Philharmonic conducted the first performance in November 1961 under the baton of Scholti. The other is a work based on Brecht's text. The other two pieces are "Songs of Time" with a text by Brecht and "Religious Sonata" for soprano, trumpet, and organ, both of which are part of the 20th century postmodern trend.
