His output was substantial: he lost most of his early music in a bombing raid in 1942, but - as if to make up for lost time - wrote some 150 more works after that. These four, for clarinet in various chamber combinations, who his music emerging from the influence of Hindemith and Berg. They have a freewheeling energy, contrapuntal command and rhythmic charge of its own - often animated by a touch of devilish humor. Two of these works receive their first recordings here. The Busch Kollegium Karlsruhe was founded in 2013 to record a first album of chamber music for clarinet and strings by Adolf Busch, released in October 2013 by Toccata Classics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Toccata","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49606677299480,"sku":"5060113443588","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/3661714.jpg?v=1777638542","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/schelb-chamber-works","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
