Description

Even seventy-five years after his death Alexander von Zemlinsky continues to be overshadowed by his pupil, colleague, friend, and brother-in-law Arnold Schnberg, all because he presumably was not so much a member of the avant-garde. Die Seejungfrau (The Mermaid) is an enigmatic and absolutely fabulous work based on the fairy tale of the same name by Hans Christian Andersen. First rediscovered in the mid-1970s, it has become one of Zemlinskys most popular works. This genuine product of the musical art nouveau fantastic and highly unified, suggestive and lavishly pictorial, and instrumented with an extraordinary feel for colors abounds in vivid themes and motifs that make a profound and lasting impression on each and every listener. In addition, we are presenting two little samples from Zemlinskys second (fairy tale) opera, Es war einmal (Once Upon a Time), one of the young composers first great successes at the Vienna Court Opera.
