C'est merveilleux, Schönberg a mille fois raison de s'être rapproché de J. Strauss. Cette orchestration est tellement plus drôle, légère, fine, aérée, débarrassée des flonflons. C'est ce qui manquait à Strauss, l'orchestration légère. Je suis très ému.
Wunderschöne Interpretation dieses perfekt komponierten und fein arrangierten Walzers mit farbenreichen doch perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der intelöligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Ensemble im angemessenen Tempo und mit angenehmer Dynamik. Echt faszinierend!
Großartig. Schoenberg vermag, wozu J. Strauss niemals in der Lage gewesen ist. Die Musik ist so viel spannender, vielschichtiger und vor allem genialer, als alles was die gesamte Walzerdynastie jemals zu Papier brachte. Das unterscheidet einen Künstler von einem, der das Handwerk einigermaßen beherrscht und auf Geld aus ist.
Fascinating. Do you happen to know if the manuscript title page shown in the first few seconds was written by Schönberg himself in 1925? I'm puzzled because, as far as I can ascertain, he didn't adopt the spelling Schoenberg until after he emigrated to the USA in 1933.
I wondered about that too. Most of those arrangements he seemed to have written before 1921, why this one much later, I don't know. It might be a copyist's hand. I am not an expert in handwriting but it seems to be a bit different from his other scores.
@@bartjebartmans Thanks. It does look like the title page is in pencil and the score itself in ink. So when I think about it, the title page does look to me more like something a collector or librarian would have added later, and less like something Schönberg himself would have felt necessary for the fairly informal occasion of the first performance described in your excellent notes.
I love this hilarious arrangement. Packed full of random trills, brand new countermelodies and themes, weird doublings, etc. All in good fun!
That was fun! It was fascinating to see how a master orchestrator handles a familiar piece.
That text in the description box is a real hoot!
Awesome
Very nice score.

Superbly done arrangement! Schoenberg's arrangements never fails to amaze (and I wish you upload his Reger arrangement if possible XD)

Quelle intelligence, quelle délicatesse de la part de Schönberg.
