Sinfonie in einem Satz (1. Fassung)

"Bernd Alois Zimmermann was an anomaly in 20th-century Euro-modernism, not so much because he refused to engage with the big trends, but because he took those trends and went rogue. His ballet suite Giostra Genovese is a weird marvel of anachronism, with piles upon piles of quotations and non sequiturs; Music for King Ubu's Dinner is a "ballet noir" from 1966 that still sounds politically incorrect. This WDR album contains both those works, plus the Concerto for String Orchestra, all performed with a meticulously menacing, deadpan sense of drama".
