Joachim Raff - Symphony No. 11 in A minor "The Winter", Op. 214

Conductor: Urs Schneider
Slovak Philharmonic
Year: 1993

Symphony No. 11 in A minor "Der Winter" (The Winter) (1876), Op. 214 was the last symphony by German-Swiss composer Joachim Raff. It concluded his series of symphonies (No. 8 through to No. 11) which each marked the four seasons of the year. Though work on this symphony began in 1876, it remained incomplete at the time of Raff's death in 1882. There is evidence in Raff's sketches of dissatisfaction, which might explain why the piece remained incomplete. Nonetheless, the symphony was completed by Max Erdmannsdörfer shortly after Raff's death.
