Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 1994 by the Musical Heritage Society, this recording features the Bamberger Symphoniker under the baton of Karl Anton Rickenbacher. The album serves as a collection of symphonic excerpts from late-Romantic operatic and incidental scores, primarily focusing on Engelbert Humperdinck’s works—most notably his fairy-tale opera Hänsel und Gretel—alongside evocative orchestral pieces inspired by themes of folklore and childhood fantasy.

The album is representative of the Musical Heritage Society’s mission to provide accessible, high-quality classical recordings to home collectors through mail-order distribution. The performances by the Bamberger Symphoniker emphasize the lush, expansive orchestration typical of the period's fairy-tale music, aiming to capture the atmospheric storytelling and melodic richness that characterized the turn-of-the-century German musical tradition.
