Hindemith's wind concertos represent a cornerstone of 20th-century modernism, and this 1995 cpo recording with conductor Werner Andreas Albert and soloists including Marie Luise Neunecker and Reinhold Friedrich presents them comprehensively. Hindemith's approach is refreshingly direct—his music avoids Romantic gestures in favor of a leaner, architectural sound that highlights instrumental colors and idiomatically written passages. This survey captures the composer's evolution across multiple concertos, revealing his gift for both virtuosic display and intimate writing. The performances do full justice to this undervalued master's vision of what the modern concerto could be.
