Reznicek / Staatskapelle- Symphonische Suite 1 (CD)
Our comprehensive and successful Reznicek edition now presents three very different works - the Symphonic Suite No. 1 (1882), Dream Play Suite (1915 / 21), and Carnival Suite (1932) - which the composer nonetheless assigned to the suite genre. Taken together, they document his compositional and stylistic development over the decades. Moreover, they are performed by an orchestra that Reznicek himself once had conducted for a short time: the Weimar State Orchestra. His Symphonic Suite is more like a three-movement symphony for full orchestra. It is clearly audible that here Reznicek is not concerned with motivic work and thematic fission but with the contrast of moods. The harmony and the instrumentation leave little doubt about it's source of inspiration in Wagner. The suite from the incidental music to Strindberg's Dream Play is a series of short, atmospherically dense musical pictures, and in terms of it's compositional history the Carnival Suite is a symphonic intermezzo dividing the opera Gondoliere des Dogen into two parts. In the manner of a Baroque suite, it consists of seven parts: March - Introduction - Pierrot and Columbine - Gigue - Furlana - Passepied - Aria - Gypsy March. The relation of the suite to the rest of the opera music results from the circumstance that here too the rhythm of the Furlana (dance from the Friuli region) is omnipresent.
