CLASSICAL AUDIO
· This release is Erwin Stein's chamber arrangement of Gustav
Mahler's Symphony No. 4. In 1921, Arnold Schoenberg
organized a series of private concerts, performed by small
ensembles. Schoenberg and Stein combined their ingenuity
and created "sophisticated versions" of important orchestral
works.
·
These arrangements were usually for a few woodwinds, a
string quintet, percussion and piano. Stein also added a
harmonium, which was quite rare at the time but the organ
adds a unique timbre to this arrangement.
