Anton Webern conducts Schubert


Special treat! Anton Webern conducts the Frankfurt Radio Orchestra in 1932 in his 1924 transcription of Schubert's German Dances.There are quite a few of Webern's arrangements of Schubert, and quite a few recordings, too, but this is Webern himself.

Thank you! It is also available - or at least I assume it still is - on the Boulez Sony 'Complete' Webern. How much we missed out on there, before the DG set, almost twice the length, but hearing Webern himself is of course something special indeed...
