Anton BRUCKNER (1824-1896) - Symphony # 7 arranged for chamber ensemble

When Arnold Schönberg (together with Alban Berg and Anton Webern) founded his Verein für musikalische Privatauffürungen in November 1918, his intention was to present music - and not just contemporary music - which he regarded as undervalued, or deserving of particular promotion and attention. It was, as Berg put it in a prospectus, "not a society for composers, but exclusively for the public": in fact the press was expressly excluded, and applause (as well as expressions of displeasure) forbidden. After 118 concerts, the society was disbanded in September 1921 - one month before this version of Bruckner's Seventh was completed, an accident of history which meant that its first performance (by the Thomas Christian Ensemble) had to wait until 19 March 2000.

On this recording the Thomas Christian Ensemble produce a wonderful clear and refined sound, with even the piano fitting seamlessly into the whole.
