Description: This
Tyrolean composer both collected and studied and composed music based on folk
themes from his native part of Austria. The three big Südtirol suites total 18
movements drawing inspiration not only from folk music but from such other
Tyrolean sources as Oswald von Wolkenstein and Leonhard Lechner. Der Weg is
music for an Alpine film travelogue (and Frau Hitt is the name of an Alpine
peak); Kinderland, written while a Russian prisoner-of-war, is music for
primary and secondary teaching. Clear, mono sound from studio recordings made
for later broadcast. There are two other volumes of his music; if this one
proves to be popular, I'll offer the others too. 2 CDs. Mono. Innsbruck State
Orchestra; Walter Hindelang and Large Orchestra of the Austrian Radio; Max
Schönherr (Der Weg ins Tal). - Records International
