Soloists:Buffalo Po:Falletta - Tyberg: Symphony No.3

Rescued from oblivion before his tragic death in Auschwitz in 1944, Marcel Tyberg's Symphony No. 3 sets out on a poetic journey with shades of Schumann and Brahms, Bruckner and Mahler, playful instrumental filigrees, colourful counterpoint and captivating harmonies. This sweeping work for large orchestra received its premi?�re performances by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by JoAnn Falletta, finally giving voice to a composer who never heard his masterpiece performed. Tyberg's chamber music also demonstrates his deep respect for 19th-century musical modes and manners; imbued with the spirit of Beethoven and Mendelssohn, his Piano Trio brims with a richly Romantic esprit. JoAnn Falletta, who has established a reputation for conducting artistically important, but seldom-heard works, is embarking on a multi-year recording project of the lost works of the brilliant Austrian composer and Holocaust victim Marcel Tyberg.
