In 2012, the Academy’s Principal, Jonathan Freeman-Attwood, asked composer Anthony Payne (of Elgar's Third Symphony fame) if he would reignite the reductive principles of Schoenberg's arrangements for his Society for Musical Performance in a new version of Bruckner's Symphony No. 2. Whilst employing a slightly larger ensemble than the core chamber group used by Schoenberg in our opener – Johann Strauss’s ‘Emperor Waltz’ – the distilled scoring serves to reveal the luminescent appeal of a little-known 19th-century masterpiece.
