Dietrich Henschel's performance is extraordinary, one of the most impressive vocal displays to come along in many a moon. (...) Billed as "Luciano Berio: In Memoriam", this disc offers an ideal tribute to a major figure in 20th century music.
David Hurwitz, ClassicsToday.com, September 2005, Disc of the Month, Artistic Quality 10 / Sound Quality 10 Christoph Eschenbach leads the Orchestre de Paris also in Rendering (1988-89), an orchestral work based on sketches which Franz Schubert made for a Symphony in D major (D963A), in addition to fragments derived from other Schubert works. Berio filled in the gaps with his own music, and the difference between the two worlds - Schubert and Berio - is one of the major factors in the identity of this work. |
