Radio So Berlin/Kallitzke - Hanns Eisler: Hangmen Also Die!, The 400 Million, The Grapes of Wrath, Kleine Symphonie, H�rflei��bung

In addition to his Oscar-nominated score for Fritz Lang's film 'Hangmen Also Die' (1943), this CD contains some rarely heard works by Schoenberg pupil, Hanns Eisler (1898-1962). The programme demonstrates the approach he developed towards twelve-tone technique and how it played a surprisingly important role in the field of film and orchestral music.
