New member here- greetings to all and thanks for starting/keeping up this great site. My question deals with identification of the sourses of written...
The list is too long to give a general answer, but if there are specific scores you want to identify I'm sure I or someone in the group would be able to give...
I can't give a general answer either, but I happen to know that the Kalmus miniature score to #8 is Haas. I got this information from Steve Ledbetter (former...

Hello. I have just acquired my first CDs of Bruckner: Symphonies 4 & 5 , with Wiener Philarmoniker conducted by Bernard Haitink. Doble CD of Philips, 1985 and...

It IS incredible music, it is intense and subtle and dramatic and structured and can sound chaotic, and the more you hear it more simple and the more complex...

Hi Stephen, VPO gave two concerts in Athens last September. The first concert was a concert version of Salome and the orchestra was name VSOO. The second...
... Hi George - not surprising. The VPO was all-male (harpists aside) from its founding in 1825 IIRC until a couple of years ago and has been under great...
Stephen, There has been some overlapping, but this is absolutely normal for an orchestra like VSOO or VPO. I don't know if all members of VSOO are also members...
I think that this is the case, or at least was the case, going back a century or more. Mahler conducted both the VPO and VSOO when he went to Vienna in 1897,...
Hi Warren, Mahler's successor was Josef Hellmesberger, Jr., no match for Mahler, but very popular with and much respected the viennese. A mediocrity though,...
Has anyone heard Tony's Abendzauber for Tenor Solo, Four Horns and Yodelelers (1878)? (Abendzauber translates to "Evening Charm"). I must admit that I find the...

Hi Stephen, Thanks for info. The two VSOO/VPO concerts I attended last September were not really up to the orchestra's standards because of the conductor, who...
Allô, The VPO consists exclusively of members of the Vienna State Opera Orchestra. Some years ago (in 1998, iirc) the "men-only"-dogma was abolished for both...
Just a funny idea - since Bruckner employed harps only in his Eighth Symphony - this is probably the only one for the female players, supposed there were no...

This is really interesting - thanks a lot for this info, Urbie! By the way, have you ever heard of Stuart Dempster - trombonist and composer. His underground...
