Art music from the Classical and Romantic periods in Switzerland leads a shadowy existence. According to Lena-Lisa Wüstendörfer, conductor, doctor of musicology and founder of the Swiss Orchestra, this is a regrettable fact. Through intensive research, she tracked down the two works from the Swiss Romantic period presented here, which are now being introduced to a wide audience on the Swiss Orchestra's debut CD.
