"The latest reissue in Wergo's studio reihe series is very special. This recording, featuring soprano Helga Pilarczyk and conductor Pierre Boulez performing Schoenberg's Pierrot lunaire, was the first release on the newly founded Wergo label in 1962, and it was the recording that laid the foundation of the label's decades-long story of success. Unavailable on CD up to now, this highlight from Wergo's early days has been remastered for CD to offer the finest sound quality." Performed by: Helga Pilarczyk (soprano); Maria Bergmann (piano); Jacques Castagner (flute); Guy Deplus (clarinet); Louis Montaigne (bass clarinet); Luben Yordanoff (violin); Serge Collot (viola); Jean Huchot (cello). Includes an 80-page booklet.

"In the early 1960s, Wergo launched a series that would become legendary in the history of contemporary music recordings. Studio Reihe Neuer Musik featured some of the most significant and cutting-edge compositions of the modern era. Many of the recordings in the series have never been released on CD and some have been unavailable in any form for many years. Arnold Schönberg's sprechstimme monodrama Erwartung is possibly the most famous title in the series. Soprano Helga Pilarczyk offers a riveting performance of one of the most important and influential works of the 20th century." Performed by Helga Pilarczyk (soprano), Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie, Hermann Scherchen. Includes a 76-page booklet.
