About

Cellist Antonio Lysy, known for his Grammy Award winning Yarlung CD 'Antonio Lysy at The Broad: Music from Argentina' (YAR27517), joins Neal Stulberg conducting the UCLA Philharmonia in three major orchestral works by Viennese composer Eric Zeisl.

Recorded in the legendary Royce Hall, Los Angeles.

“Representing his Viennese years are the bold, richly scored (and not so little) Kleine Sinfonie nach Bildern der Roswitha Bitterlich (Little Symphony after Pictures of Roswitha Bitterlich) (1935-36) and the intimate November: Six Sketches for Chamber Orchestra (1937-40). Epitomizing Zeisl’s maturity in Los Angeles is the dramatic Concerto Grosso for ‘Cello and Orchestra (1955-56), his last large-scale orchestral work.” - Malcolm Cole, Zeisl historian

"Zeisl’s music is enjoying a renaissance now, and for good reason: his is a personal, intense and urgent voice that speaks with the distinctive dual citizenship of mid-century Vienna and Los Angeles. While his vocal, choral and chamber music has been recorded in recent years, much of his orchestral music still awaits rediscovery. We hope that this album will provide listeners with an introductory survey of Zeisl’s orchestral art." - Neal Stulberg, Music Director
