Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz - Weigl- Symphony No. 3 in B-Flat Major & Symphonic Prelude to a Tragedy (2025) [24/48]

The two works on this recording both come from a creative period at the beginning of the 1930s. Stylistically, with his works rooted in tonality, Karl Weigl drew on the sound world of late Romanticism, and he never abandoned this aesthetic in favour of more progressive contemporary trends. Weigl’s skill in orchestration can be heard in both the hymnic climaxes and the chamber music-like passages. Weigl never lived to hear a performance of either his Third Symphony or the Symphonic Prelude. Like so many of his larger works, these scores were not rediscovered until interest in Weigl’s music made a resurgence decades later. This release represents the world premiere audio recordings of both works.
