These new recordings of two of the most important of the Symphonies by the outstanding Swiss composer Fritz Brun are of the highest significance. These two works, amongst this composer's finest scores, demonstrate the fact that the Symphonic form in music was thriving during the middle part of the 20th-century. Brun's music was always regarded as being of the greatest interest and significance when it was first heard, but he was not a composer to push his own music, with the result that it tended to become unfairly neglected. It is only in recent years that the fine quality and importance of his work has come to be recognised, and this superbly played and recorded new disc is sure to win many new friends for the composer.
