Egon Wellesz (1885-1974): Der Abend, op. 4
Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951): Three Piano Pieces, op. 11
Wilhelm Grosz (1894-1951): Symphonic Variations, op. 9

Gottlieb Wallisch's recital commemorates the 150th anniversary of Schoenberg's birth as well as the work of his student Egon Wellesz, who died in Oxford 50 years ago. The fin-de-siecle impressionism of Wellesz' cycle 'Der Abend' (1909/10) is contrasted with Wilhelm Grosz's Symphonic Variations, op. 9 from 1920: a monumental piece that combines a post-Mahlerian musical language with highly virtuosic pianism. This recital is presented in association with the Faculty of Music and the UdK Berlin [Universität der Künste Berlin].
