Ever since its publication in 1927, musicians have pondered on a possible deeper significance to Berg's quotations from Tristan und Isolde and Zemlinsky's Lyric Symphony. Recent discoveries have shed a totally new and unexpected light on them and also on Berg himself and the rest of the Suite. It is no longer ' six acts of a latent opera ' as Adorno sensed, but a fully explicit paean of a love which, Tristan-like, Berg felt could only be fulfilled in death. '
The finale even has a text underlaying the principal thematic lines. This performance realises
Berg's secret intention.
