Information

Inhalt

During his summer retreat in 1906, Arnold Schönberg wrote large parts of his Chamber Symphony op. 9. By using an ensemble of only 15 instrumentalists, the composer will have hoped for increased performance frequency, while also creating extensive differentiation in the musical scoring. Intricate polyphony connects up the motivic diversity, with the interval of a fourth playing an important role as an innovative harmonic element, to form an organic unit. However, at the premiere – performed by the Rosé Quartet and the Wind Ensemble of the Vienna Court Opera on February 8, 1907 in the Großer Musikvereinssaal, Vienna – the audience was hopelessly out of its depth and created a major disturbance, sabotaging the concert. The Funkstunde Berlin recording on May 22, 1931 under the baton of Fritz Stiedry, who also conducted the premiere of “The Lucky Hand” op. 18 at the Volksoper Wien, only includes part of the “Chamber Symphony” op. 9. The side of the record chosen here begins Adagio, shortly before a striking sequence of fourths announces the beginning of a new section, the reprise. The phrasing, displaying strong rubato in almost every bar, serves less to achieve an ostensibly expressive performance than a presentation of the formal process and musical structure that is as transparent as possible.
