Modern Times
 | Label: CAPRICCIO Catalog: C5214 Format: CD Ezenarro; German Philharmonic Orchestra Rhineland-Palatinate; SteffensComposed by: Dallapiccola, Luigi Amongst the composers of the second generation of Modernism in Italy, Luigi Dallapiccola (1904-75) was undoubtedly the most successful and famous. + Following the success of his Partita per orchestra (1930-32), his music became increasingly more chromatic and, fascinated by Webern and Berg, he discovered the twelve tone technique, but deliberately retained strongly diatonic links and lyrical naturalness. + With this second “Modern Times” CD, Karl-Heinz Steffens and the Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz take care of the still not very famous orchestral pieces of this composer.
