Thanks for bringing
Schulz-Beuthen up (perhaps you should change the thread title), Roelof! Those two orchestral works that are on YT come from this excellent Sterling CD, which is highly recommended to those who enjoy highly charged late-romantic music!
The music featured on this disc is quite forward-looking and is more influenced by the New German School of Liszt and Wagner than by Brahms and his circle (as the majority of German composers at the time were). According to his Wikipedia article, Schulz-Beuthen composed no less than ten symphonies (of which the first and the last remain incomplete):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinrich_Schulz-BeuthenHe spent his last years in an insane asylum and many of his compositions were left unpublished at his death. Sadly, it is believed that most of his manuscripts were destroyed in the fire bombing of Dresden in 1945 (a tragic occurrence which destroyed many other manuscripts) :( So, I doubt we shall be able to hear much else of his music, which is a real shame since what has been recorded of his is quite promising :( It also might be worth mentioning that Guild recorded some of his solo piano music, which is generally more laid back in style than the orchestral works Sterling recorded:
:)
