After the completion of the Mahler cycle with the Gürzenich Orchestra and Markus Stenz, OehmsClassics now presents another recording with these artists. This time it is a CD devoted exclusively to Schönberg, with the impressive Violin Concerto performed by Kolja Blacher and the symphonic poem Pelleas and Melisande.

“The Op 5 symphonic poem Pelleas und Melisande is a lusciously expansive evocation of Maeterlinck’s drama...The Op 36 concerto starkly reinvents musical language, yet insists on conventional form. The sometimes explosive tension between the two is what makes the work so strangely compelling.” The Sunday Times
