Subcollection: OrchestreSymphony No.5 for organ and large orchestra "Reformation Hymn", Op. 36; Die Toteninsel, Symphonic poem; Heroische Ouverture, Op. 26; Abschieds-Klänge, Op. 28.
Once more we are about to make the acquaintance of a composer whose destiny was obscured by the giants if his time. Even today, the shadows of Brahms, Bruckner, later followed by those of Strauss and Wagner, determine what is first and second-class music. Little by Little, the German post-romantic period is rediscovered, thanks to enteprising record producres and idealistic conductors
Heinrich Schult was born in Beuthen in 1838. In 1862 he became pupil of Ignaz Moscheles and Carl Reinecke in Leibzig and thereby a fellow student of both Grieg and Svendsen. Schulz-Beuthen's manaaged to complete eight symphonies and left two unfinished. Other orchestral works include Symphonic poems, incidental music, melodrama, several overtures suites and miniatures. A lot of chamber music with Piano and other ensembles. Three operas, ten oratories and a requiem. |

Another Swiss romantic! Herman Suter was the pupil and follower of Hans Huber. Mahler was very much the source of inspiration for Suter in the symphony. A drastic and colourful scherzo is followed by an intensely lyrical third movement! Jelmolis charming short pieces completes the disc. |

Sterling breaking new grounds! First CD from French part of Switzerland. More composers than Honegger made a mark in Europan music history. Maurices music is refined in late romantic and sometimes impressionistic style. Many pieces on the disc give a lasting impression of an extremely gifted and dynamic personality with all knowledge in orchestral writing. Grieg seems to have been a source of inspiration in the "Pécheur" and "Francesca". |

For all people interested in body and movement, the name Dalcroze is not unfamiliar. He owned a special institute in Geneva and devoted much time and effort to the development of his theories. But he was certainly also a very secure and very productive composer. This CD with some very charming pieces reminding of Messager will serve as a starting point. |

Subcollection: OrchestreAt last a CD only devoted to this remarkable and highly original composer. He may have started as a romantic but he became very much more daring after the two first symphonies. Indeed, we are entering a most complex and monumental structure with references also to folklore. |

Subcollection: OrchestreHere is the second volume of orchestra works by this remarkable pioneer in body and movement. His orchestral music is very personal -but influenced by Delibes and other contemporary French composers. Very colourful orchestral writing and truly complex, just listen to Tableaux Romands. Swiss in style and spirit.
Emile Jaques-Dalcroze wrote in almost every musical genre except for religious music. His style and his artistic approach are distinguished above all by his extraordianry melodic gift and the originality of his sense of rhythm. Aestetically close to the French school (of which he was a fervent champiion), he nevertheless showed the influence of Germanic post-romanticism. |
