at least in the US one can download the Sterling recording of Hermann's symphonies for $9.49. I am very much a fan of the rather stark 2nd.

"Crickets? I thought you said critics!"

Actually, in the Wellesz and similar works the 3rd movement obviously -is- the finale...

I would think a comparison with a middle-period Reger work, eg violin sonata 4 in C or 5 in f#, which are substantially more "rebarbative" than sonatas 8 or 9, might also be enlightening...

That unintended 3 movement form - Moderate Scherzo Slow- led to successors itself (think Egon Wellesz' first and 6th-9th.)

If there's a solution, it isn't to remove all the chromaticism and stay in the white notes of the piano (though Prokofiev had some interesting success building themes with that in a few 1920s-30s works, eg Fiery Angel and the op.50 quartet...)

How's the quality of the download as it appeared on our board years ago, compared to YouTube?

I thought the Fleisher Collection mostly rented to orchestras but would be glad to be wrong.

I seem to recall we may have discussed another recording of Kralik's trio some while back??

You forgot Zemlinsky's sinfonietta.
AI might be able to solve the problem, but it doesn't exist.

Just saw Viardot-Garcia's 2-act operetta Le dernier sorcier to a libretto by Turgenev (and orchestrated by Eduard Lassen) at Ithaca College. There's a 2005 recording of this 1989-rediscovered work but it completely flew under my radar- unfortunately. Terrific work and production.

Thanks! Very fond of Wilms' symphonies and at least some of his chamber works and piano concerti but haven't heard these.

One can also(?) use |NCRecordings= to link to external N(on)C(ommercial)Recordings.

btw before uploading simulated/midi recordings to imslp, do check the Policy on uploading recordings.

about Senfter, she's the next Radio 3 COTW.
