Symphony No. 2 (Weingartner)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Felix Weingartner's Symphony No. 2 in E-flat major, Op. 29 is a musical composition that Weingartner started in 1897 and completed in 1899.[1] The overall musical language of the piece is late-romantic although with a high emphasis on Schubertian melodicism. Furthermore, as with other contemporary Austrian composers of the end of the 20th century such as Gustav Mahler or Hans Rott,[2] his second symphony heavily uses a Brucknerian treatment of simple motifs through extensive repetition and grand orchestration.[3]
