Krenek: Music For Chamber Orchestra Zubel, Hausmann, Leopoldinum Orchestra, Kovacic

5 works for chamber orchestra by Krenek were written between 1931 and 1979 – both before and long after Krenek abandoned Hitler’s Austria for California. The emotions embraced here range from translucent lyricism, via powerful dramatic utterance, to uneasy existentialist humour – and much of it is very beautiful.
