Contents/Summary
- Summary
- The version is special due to the reconstruction of music by Meisel. The reconstructed versions prove that there was, in fact, a method in play and the music was composed to conscious effect, although it is questionable how much of that was actually audible in 1928. Today, however, we have the chance to engage in a late reconciliation with Meisel's works and to understand his intentions, despite the fact that we can no longer hear his compositions in entirely authentic form.
