After the great success of the complete recordings of the songs by Arnold Schoenberg (Capriccio 4CD-Set, C7120), the pianist Urs Liska and prominent colleagues once more deal with the father figure of Modernism on this double CD. Piano arrangements with up to four players, the majority of them world premiere recordings, show large-scale orchestral works such as the Gurre-Lieder or the Orchestral Pieces op. 16 in a new and transparent light.
