Carnelli, Alessandro Maria - Verklaerte Nacht Op.

- This CD presents a fascinating musical illustration of the paths which led to
the composition of Verklärte Nacht, Arnold Schoenberg s masterpiece for
string sextet, the late romantic outpouring of a harmonic and melodic
language at the end of its development, and at the same time the
beginning of a new language.

- Alessandro Maria Carnelli, scholar, musicologist, author and musician
compiled a number of works which deeply influenced Schoenberg: the 6-
part (sextet) Ricercar by J.S. Bach, songs by Brahms and Berg transcribed
for voice and string sextet, two unfinished works for string sextet by
Zemlinsky (a close friend of Schoenberg), all culminating in the work itself,
Verklärte Nacht by Schoenberg.

- Performed by mezzo-soprano Gabriella Sborgi and a string sextet formed
with the principal players of the Orchestra da Camera di Mantova,
conducted by Alessandro Maria Carnelli.

- The booklet contains extensive information on the background of this
intriguing conceptual album.
