Many listeners will be surprised to learn that Anton Webern wrote choral music--and indeed, his complete output, performed here, lasts a total of five minutes and seven seconds.

"Pierre Boulez leads his Ensemble InterContemporain and pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard in a series of elegant performances of these early Webern pieces; many of which are also composed for choirs and/or single vocal soloists. Although these are early works, they are by no means juvenile marginalia, but instead, are well-thought expressions of Webern's interest in Serialism. I strongly recommend this CD as an excellent introduction of Webern's early scores from the intriguing perspective of Boulez, Webern's foremost interpreter. The sound quality is quite superb."
