Anton Webern - Funf Satze, Opus 5

The Five Movements were originally composed for string quartet in 1909. Here it is played in its string orchestra version.

Heftig bewegt, Tempo 1

Sehr langsam

Sehr lebhaft

Sehr langsam

In zarter Bewegung

From what I can gather, David Grimal was the concertmaster(?). (Thanks to Fasculin for the YouTubings.)

About Detritus Hall

The companion site to The Detritus Review, Detritus Hall provides a more direct route to the music world we so often talk about—think of it as your virtual music hub, or hall, of the new and the undersung that rarely makes it into print, at least favorably. It provides a point of reference for those of you, like us, who don’t have unlimited access to the recorded world or those of us who can’t afford (or get paid) to attend every concert under the sun. Here, we supply the music mainly in video form, but we also supply download links and anything else we feel pertinent to a successful immersion into the world of musical modernism and beyond. As usual, we hope to incite meaningful dialog, because it’s our stance that the better we can listen to and talk about music, the richer our collective experience becomes. (Sorry critics, no snark, for the most part.)
