Amazon's blurb"   ".... This is Vol. 6 of Capriccios Braunfels Edition, devoted to reviving the composer's rich legacy and showcasing the colourful range of his music. The programme features works for piano and orchestra from three different periods of his life: his first complete orchestral work, Witches' Sabbath, Op. 8 (1906), the Concert Piece, Op. 64 (1946) and one of his last compositions, the Hebridian Dances, Op. 70 (1950/51)."

The caveat here is that only Braunfels' Witches Sabbath falls within UC's timeframe. The other pieces are much later...

[Alan Howe]

...as is confirmed by these excerpts:

They are stylistically well beyond the remit of UC, so please confine the discussion here to Op.8.

Thanks, Alan, early Braunfels is a delight. I've just been listening to Die Vögel, and it's gorgeous.
