Residentie Orkest plays Eine Alpensinfonie

Although the composer had already more or less put the symphonic poem behind him and concentrated on opera, in 1915 he put a majestic exclamation point with a grandly manned orchestra. An organ, cowbells, wind and thunder machines and many brass instruments provided lifelike weather conditions.
