Alban Berg (1885 - 1935), along with Schoenberg and Webern, is considered as one of the pioneers of avant-garde movement that gave license to the hardcore advocates of serialism and the 12-tone chromaticism to rock around the house with their eclectic vibes that still reverberates to this day. So, with no further ado, I'm proud to present the daddy-o of the modern music.peachfuzz

When Stephen Hough’s disc of Hummel piano concertos came out in the early 1990s, it was a revelation. Here was a much neglected composer whose music responded to Hough’s treatment and made us realise that there was rather more to this man than we might have thought. Having not come across any of Hummel’s fifteen operas on disc before, I had high hopes of this recording. – Robert Hugill, MusicWeb International
Antonio Salieri’s Falstaff is not Verdi’s and never will be. That out of the way, it’s a charming evening’s entertainment, occasionally quite funny, with nicely characterized roles, swell, brief melodies, excellent, spicy wind writing (vividly played here on period instruments and recorded in such a way that the sonics favor them), and nice forward propulsion. The action moves quickly and pointedly, the dry recitatives are frequent but never too long, and when they do go on, the cast here is clever and involved enough to make them dramatically viable.
In this Carus release, Frieder Bernius leads soloists from Kammerchor Stuttgart in a selection of transcriptions by Clytus Gottwald and original compositions for chorus subdivided into multiple parts, in this case, up to 16 parts. The arrangements, here of songs originally for solo voice and piano, demonstrate Gottwald's mastery of this niche genre; he has also made remarkably effective choral transcriptions of chamber music and work for full orchestra. The arrangements, of songs by Ravel, Debussy, and Schumann, work beautifully as choral music, even as independent compositions, considered apart from their sources.
