I believe I picked up that Denon recording of Schlagobers from Records International back in '89. It's truly a wonderful piece.
I've not heard Deutsche Mottete or Die Tageszeiten, but I will check them out.

I also have the Denon disc, probably bought it I dunno seven years ago I'd guess. Was probably under $15. Sucks that it's so expensive now. I do prefer Josephselegend though.

Thank you, Ebubu. a Christmas treat :)

Joachim Raff

Just listening to his Horn Concertos and there are absolutely marvellous. The recording is the EMI one with  Dennis Brain (french horn),
Philharmonia Orchestra
Wolfgang Sawallisch

Reto Schärli

You might also want to consider "Burleske" d minor for Piano and Orchestra, a very enjoyable thing and highly virtuosic!
Thought that's not so "unsung" any more. Buchbinder has championed the piece, there is an introduction here:

actually, his Burleske is fairly often recorded and performed nowadays? (at least one new recording each of the last four years or so?...)

I don't really think it's unsung these days - unlike the two early symphonies, for example.
