Alban Berg at Trauttmansdorffgasse 27, Arnold Schönberg Center, CC BY-SA 3.0 AT
In 1947, 12 years after the death of Schönberg’s student Alban Berg, the latter’s “Lyric Suite” for string quartet was released by the US record label Vox. Set 181 was pressed from French master copies that were made in 1935/36 during recording sessions with the Galimir Quartet in Paris. This performance of the Suite by the musicians Felix, Adrielle, Renée and Marguerite Galimir is the first commercial recording of a composition by Alban Berg and was released on Polydor. Besides its historical significance, the recording is also relevant for performance practice purposes as the performers received instruction from Alban Berg himself during rehearsals in the late 1920s. “Berg asked for enormous correctness in the performance of his music and after that for a very romanticized treatment.” (Felix Galimir, 1981) After his studies with Schönberg (1904–1908), Alban Berg lived in the district of Vienna-Hietzing at Trauttmansdorffgasse 27 until he died in 1935. The house is now owned by the Alban Berg Foundation and the composer’s apartment partly remains in its original form. (Text: Arnold Schönberg Center)
