JoAnn FallettaAbout
Interest in Schoenberg and his circle’s arrangements of orchestral works for chamber ensemble for his Verein für musikalische Privataufführungen has grown considerably in recent years, with recordings of the chamber version of Mahler’s Fourth Symphony alone already having appeared on the Avie, Linn, Dorian and ABC Classics labels.
The Schoenberg arrangements of Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen and Das Lied von der Erde have also proven popular, but our release can boast a world-beating team of musicians. Conducted by the Grammy Award-winning JoAnn Falletta, soprano Susan Platts is a celebrated and Rolex-Prize winning Mahlerian soloist who has performed Das Lied von der Erde to great acclaim all over the world. Baritone Roderick Williams is connected with every major UK opera house, singing concert repertoire with the BBC orchestras and internationally, as well as appearing in major operatic premières by composers such as Sally Beamish and Robert Saxton.
Central to the ensemble for these recordings is the multiple award-winning Attacca Quartet, recognized as one of America’s premier young ensembles. The Virginia Arts Festival Chamber Players recently appeared on the new Naxos recording of Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale (8573537), also conducted by JoAnn Falletta, and described by Graham Rickson of The Arts Desk as ‘phenomenally good… Highly enjoyable, and possibly the best modern recording of an important, influential work.’
