Our Take

The Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne and conductor (and oboist extraordinaire) Heinz Holliger take on a challenging and esoteric programme of 20th-century chamber music in this latest release. Schonberg's Kammersymphonie Op. 9 is given a fresh and dynamic interpretation, full of tension and drama. Holliger's arrangement of Sechs Kleine Stucke Op. 19 is a masterstroke, transforming the piano originals into a delicate and shimmering chamber work.

But it's Webern's compositions that truly shine on this album. The Symphonie Op. 21 is a sparse and haunting masterpiece, with each note feeling like a precious gem in a minimalist landscape. The Funf Satze Op. 5 are similarly captivating, with Holliger and the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne bringing out the intricate textures and delicate harmonies of Webern's music.

Overall, this album is a treat for fans of modern classical music, with Holliger and the orchestra delivering performances that are both technically impressive and emotionally resonant. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those willing to take a dive into the world of Second Viennese School composers, this album is a must-listen. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let the avant-garde sounds of Schonberg and Webern wash over you.
