Der Ferne Klang...Orchestral Works & Songs By Franz Schreker

Christoph Eschenbach conducts this generous survey of the sumptuous, hyper-romantic music of Austrian composer Franz Schreker. Not only was he the pre-eminent opera composer of his generation, he also, says Eschenbach, 'took Mahler's symphonic writing to a whole new level'. The album includes the ecstatic 'Nachtstück' from 'Der ferne Klang', the exquisite 'Chamber Symphony' and some ravishing orchestral songs, featuring Chen Reiss and Matthias Goerne.
