| Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Schoenberg abandoned the composition of his oratorio Jacob's Ladder when he was called up for military service in 1917, and he never returned to it. The fragments of this cataclysmic work are passionately performed here by Pierre Boulez and the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Singers. This is heavy, dense, and ultimately engaging music, but it won't accompany your afternoon tea. Also featured on this disc is the First Chamber Symphony, an important work for the Viennese modernist, performed by Boulez and his Ensemble InterContemporain. --Joshua Cody

Jacobsleiter June 23, 2007 Per Lundin (Sweden) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I hope this particular recording will be in print as long as I live. Pierre Boulez has done a masterful work with the orchestra, managing to bring out the mysticism and huge drama of Schoenberg's oratorio The Jacobsleiter with a rythmic agility that knows no borders!
