Artur Schnabel: Lieder from op. 11 & op. 14 (Arrangement for Soprano & Ensemble by Graziella Contratto)

The ensemble consists of freelance musicians and soloists from various Swiss symphony orchestras. Since 2009, on the occasion of a memorial concert for Artur Schnabel in Schwyz, the ensemble has repeatedly performed the chamber version of Mahler’s 4th Symphony.

The musicians feel they have followed the tradition of the Society for Private Musical Performances, founded in 1918 in conjunction with Arnold Schönberg’s composition class. In the interesting chamber version by Klaus Simon, the work is reduced to exactly the 14 instruments that were available at the time – plus a solo soprano. Of particular interest are also the songs written by Artur Schnabel, who became more famous as a pianist.

As a composer he was strongly influenced by Schönberg, who wrote three symphonies, five string quartets and numerous chamber music works. In the song composition he undoubtedly wrote for his wife, the alto Therese Behr-Schnabel, with whom he performed at numerous recitals.
