Description: If you wait long enough all sorts of things you never expected may turn up, huh? A 48-minute mass from the Swiss Sutermeister (1952-53) and a 23-minute 1953 concerto by the Italian Ghedini, both likely the premiere performances of the works. Maybe also for the Henze which was written in 1960. And only the Henze is otherwise available on CD. 2 CDs. RAI Rome Symphony Orchestra; Herbert von Karajan.
