MP3s, 192 kps
Not commercially released
From the collection of Karl Miller
http://www.mediafire.com/?cfzalimgsbauu81

We have some clarification on these tracks from Holger--

Quote

    actually the First Symphony is the same work as the Duisburger Sinfonia, I guess it might even be the same performance maybe recorded by two different persons.

    This is what is behind the confusion: Jürg Baur's First Symphony is called "Sinfonie einer Stadt (Patetica)", which means "Symphony of a City" in English. The city Baur means is Duisburg, if I remember correctly he composed in on commission for some jubilee. The piece is from 1983. As some members are interested in movement titles, here is what I know:

    I. Invocation (Passacaglia)
    II. Melancholie
    III. Scherzo tumultoso
    IV. [don't know]


Another  update, courtesy of Holger:
Quote

    Checking the information I gathered for myself once again, there is another correction regarding the Jürg Baur upload. The orchestra playing in the "Pentagramm" Concerto is not the Cologne Radio Symphony Orchestra, but the Radio Filharmonisch Orkest (from the Netherlands). This can be heard if listening to the announcer carefully. To provide some more details, here are the members of the Danzi Quintet who play in this recording: Frans Vester (flute), Koen van Slogtere (oboe), Piet Honigh (clarinet), Brian Pollard (Bassoon) and Adriaan van Woudenberg (French Horn).

http://www.mediafire.com/download/99ac9ennt5e5iza/Künneke_BiedermeierSte.part2.rar

from lp Telefunken 6.41906 AJ


Eduard Künneke is/was famous for his opera's and operettes.
On the occasion of Künneke's 75th birthday Teldec pressed a vinyl where he conducts
his own works.

The "roaring twenties' brought new music to Berlin, especially jazz or jazzy music
from the USA. Many classical composer incorperated this in their works. You hear the
evidence of that in works of f.i. Hindemith. Among the many other composers using it,
was Künneke. His Tänzerische Suite (*Dance Suite),is a Concerto Grosso for Jazzband
and Large Orchestra. So here is light classical music played by the Berliner
Philharmoniker. Later Künneke rearranged the Suite for other ensembles, but here the
original version is used.
The Biedermeier-Suite is, so to say, the complete opposite: this is real German music,
looking back at times gone by.
The subtitle says: Es ist noch nicht so lange her. (It was not so long ago).

I'm usually not to fond of 'historical recordings', because quality of the sounds, but
this recording, and especially the oldest one  gives surprisingly, quite a good sound.

The Tänzerische Suite was recorded Feb 14 1938. The other two are both from 1943.

Here is a scan of the backside of the sleeve: http://www.mediafire.com/view/vlnbeh7q5qchucj/KünnekeNotes.jpg

Wilhelm Weismann (1900-1980)
Die Dreistrophenkantate (The three-stanza cantata) for Bariton, mixed choir and 12 instruments (1972)

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?u9hl2hx44s8hjt8

from lp Nova 8 85 165

Performers:
3 baritones: Siegfried Hausmann, Bernhard Strohbach and Gert Gruner
Rundfunkchor Berlin (Radio Chorus Berlin)
12 instrumentalists: Flute, oboe, clarinet, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, trombone, double bass and piano
conductor: Wolf-Dieter Hauschild
(translation -freely- of the sleeve note)
The cantata was composed in 1972, a year after the death of Georg Maurer, who's Dreistrophenkalender' the text for the cantata offered. Weismann brings the fluidum of each poem into sound. Striking how orchestral he manages the chamber music ensemble. It looks like all the participants are in conversation wich each other, in a pensive, contemplative, humorous and cheerful way. The many voices nature makes use of polyphony to be marching with the
bursting buds of spring. In the andante 'Afternoon'-skirmish the sky and meadow come close to eachother, flutes and horns-dialogue, supports the floating piano, almost recitative-like singing.
"Before the Kiss," there begins a serious, gentle siciliano-singing of the women's choir, a weighing
of what is most needed: a delicately sheathed desire.
Arpeggiated piano chords and bass accents accompany the first-love.  The oboe suggests the change into deeper feelings.
'Peace' is a solemn Andante for solo and chorus, reminiscent of ancient choral traditions, and the
final 'roundelay' brings a joyful solo choir final.

Wilhelm Weismann is known for compositions in which classical and popular music are brought together. For nearly 40-years Weismann was employed at the Peters Musik Verlag, since the GDR time VEB Edition Peters. As a composer Weismann was first of all a 'vocal'-composer. Many works on poems by Hölderlin und Goethe, as well as Pablo Neruda and Georg Maurer were composed.

Die Hochzeit der Tiere (The Marriage of the Animals)
A Tanz-Kantate (Dance Cantata) (1961-62) on text of Johann Herders 'Die Lustige Hochzeit', a part of his 'Stimmen der Völker in Lieder'.
for 5 solo singers, childrens choir, mixed choir and orchestra.

Killmayer was a teacher of music theory and counterpoint at the Trappsches Konservatorium in Munich from 1955. He was a conductor of the Bavarian State Opera's ballet from 1961 to 1964. From 1973 to 1992 he was a professor of composition at the Hochschule für Musik.[2] Among his students are Max Beckschäfer, Sandeep Bhagwati, Rudi Spring and Laurence Traiger.

Killmayers first composition was Lorca-Romanzen after Federico García Lorca, premiered at the Donaueschingen Festival.[3] In 1954 he composed a Missa brevis, which was recorded and reviewed:

"Young (29) Munich-born Composer Wilhelm Killmayer's Missa Brevis ripples with exciting, shifting rhythms and rises skillfully to a colorful series of blasting choral climaxes occasionally more reminiscent of the bandstand than the choir.[4]"

Killmayer composed three symphonies called Fogli (1968), Ricordanze (1968/69) and Menschen-Los (1972/73, revised 1988). He composed other orchestral works such as Nachtgedanken (1973), and music for chamber orchestra, The woods so wilde (1970), Schumann in Endenich (1972) and Kindertage (1973). His stage works La Buffonata (1959/60) and Yolimba (new version 1970) are based on texts by Tankred Dorst.[5] For the 20th anniversary of the Münchener Kammerorchester Killmayer composed in 1970 Fin al punto for string orchestra, which premiered in 1971, conducted by Hans Stadlmair.[6] He wrote about this work:

"The calm already contains the catastrophe. Out of the calm grows the movement that drives itself to the furthest extreme of its powers, where it collapses. It is the point at which one gives up, beyond which one can escape into the open.[7] "

Interested in poetry and the voice, he composed Lieder, three cycles of Hölderlin-Lieder based on Friedrich Hölderlin (1980s), song cycles based on Joseph von Eichendorff (1991), Georg Trakl (1993 and 1996) and Peter Härtling (1993), and ballads such as Heinrich Heine's Ali Bey (2006) and Eduard Mörike’s Der Feuerreiter (2007).[5]
