New renditions of Schoenberg's breakthrough work abound these days, both in the original string-sextet form and the expanded version for string orchestra. Ensemble Resonanz, the group directed here by its artist-in-residence, cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras, opts for the latter, with a group of 22 strings, and produces a strikingly assertive, beefy performance that emphasises the dramatic structure of Verklärte Nacht at the expense of the score's lyricism and textural beauty. The pairing, Berg's Lyric Suite, is less successful. Berg made an arrangement for string orchestra of the second, third and fourth movements of his string quartet, and in 2006 the Dutch composer Theo Verbey expanded the other three; Resonanz plays the complete, composite work but its rather heavy-footed performance never makes it sound convincing. The thicker textures clot the harmonies and rob the contrapuntal lines of their sinewy strength; the work's high-density lyricism seems contrived, and the essential character of the music, its marvellous tension between structural intricacy and confessional intimacy, is diluted.
