The same instrumental performance appeared behind a version in German, or so I
recall.

Wasn't this the recording with Richard Korn conducting? HE WAS SO CREDITED.



Richard Korn conducted at the New York College of Music when I was there and he represented that he had conducted that recording. I have to unearth the recording but I believe that James Pease was among the singers on that album.

Richard Korn did 3 albums of American music for Allegro, including some world premieres and some performances that are still the only recordings (I think), and HE was credited, but the orchestra was boldly identified as the PHILHARMONIA. Somehow they neglected to include the word "Hamburg". I still prefer his "Krazy Kat", abbreviated as it is.

I have a volume of some of that material on Concord 3007. I also saw and heard him conduct the Orchestra of the Americas where he programmed some interesting rarities. I have an Acetate of his performance of Wallingford Riegger's Sinfonietta.


I think that Riegger is one of the most undeservedly neglected American composers. I don't know of any commercial recording of the Sinfonietta.
