JOHN HUNT (pianoforte) ORCHESTRAJOHN HUNT AND ORCHESTRAEgon Wellesz, composer and musicologist, studied under Schonberu, Bruno Walter, and also under the famous musical scholar and historian Guido Adler. In 1913 he was appointed Lecturer and Musical Historian at Vienna University. He has made a special study of old Byzantine music and has written many important essays on the Baroque period. As a composer, he follows in the wake of Schonberg, although it must be pointed out that he has not blindly followed his master's footsteps. Like many composers of this school, Wellesz's early works show certain influences of Mahler and Reger. ORCHESTRA
