    Information

    Inhalt

    In September 1934 the Concerto for String Quartet and Orchestra in B flat major, based on the Concerto grosso op. 6 No. 7 by George Frideric Handel, was premiered at a concert broadcast to celebrate Arnold Schönberg’s 60th birthday. The radio broadcast with the orchestra of the Prague broadcaster and the Kolisch Quartet got off to a difficult start because a previous broadcast overran by 10 minutes and a broadcasting malfunction caused a further delay. The concert performance received positive feedback in the press: “The premiere of Schönberg’s concerto grosso by Handel brought a special surprise as the sound was unlike any classical traditions and concert environments. Over the radio, the work seemed far more insistent than during rehearsals in the studio. The work sounded as though it had been composed by a contemporary Handel. The radio broadcasting therefore had the effect on its listeners that Schönberg imagined would be achieved by his inspired arrangement, an effect that can never be witnessed in a bleak concert room.” (Prager Tagblatt, September 28, 1934). Rudolf Kolisch, Schönberg’s brother-in-law, reported the initial impressions of the new work to the composer on October 6, 1934: “The attitude of the orchestra was very pleasing, they [...] played with great enthusiasm. Unfortunately the acoustics in the Prague studio were so bad that I myself – (also due to the positioning of the microphone) – could not gain a proper impression of the overall sound. But the kapellmeisters in the control room were sent into raptures.” The Prague concert was not recorded, and so the US premiere from 1938 is the earliest surviving recording of the work.
