Kylián Collection [90:38]
This compilation of four ballets choreographed by Jirí Kylián and performed by the Nederlands Dans Theater was recorded between 1982 and 1987. The first, Symphony in D, uses movements from Haydn’s Symphonies No. 101 and No. 73. Silent Cries features a solo dancer and Debussy’s Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune. Schönberg’s Verklärte Nacht, op. 4, receives a somber interpretation, cast in dark green and purple tones, as three couples (4 men and 2 women) incorporate the events of Richard Dehmel’s poem in their gestures. The music of Stamping Ground (Carlos Chavez’s »Toccata for Percussion Instruments«) is preceded by a lengthy period when the dancers are accompanied only by the sounds made as they strike the ground and themselves.

The Visions of Adrian Marthaler: Classic Visions 3: Mozart, Schönberg [50:44]
Mozart’s Eine kleine Nachtmusik is performed on this recording by the European Community Youth Orchestra. It is presented in a straightforward manner, showing the young people paying close attention to conductor James Judd as they play the work from memory. Schönberg’s Verklärte Nacht, on the other hand, receives a more eccentric portrayal both musically and visually. Instead of choosing either the string sextet version or the string orchestra version of op. 4, Marthaler (or Judd?) has chosen to splice the two versions together, using the orchestra as timbral and emotional reinforcement to the on-screen narrative. Marthaler interweaves fin-de-siècle themes found in the works of Klimt and Freud with the events of the Dehmel poem on which the work is based, creating a postmodern visual pastiche to accompany the fine performance given by the Brodsky Quartet and members of the Basel Symphony Orchestra.

Vienna 1900: Recollections of a Viennese Girl in Paris [V075;53:00 ]
Vienna 1900 uses a fictional character named Anna to narrate her experiences in turn-of-the-century Vienna. She sees elegance and tradition in the waltz and café culture, but she also notices the seeds of modernism in the architectural designs of Adolf Loos and Otto Wagner, in the writings of Hermann Bahr and Karl Kraus, in the psychotherapeutic explorations of Sigmund Freud, and in the music and painting of Arnold Schönberg. The film includes photos and live footage from the period.

Classic Visions: First Look [V076; 21:24]
This sampler of Adrian Marthaler’s Visions includes excerpts from works by Ravel, Saint-Saëns, Milhaud, Haydn, Mozart, Salieri, and Schönberg. The visual accompaniment to these musical selections is characteristically esoteric. Marthaler seems to be appealing to an audience more familiar with the music video than the concert hall.

The Visions of Adrian Marthaler: Classic Visions 3: Mozart, Schönberg [V077A; 50:44]
Mozart’s Eine kleine Nachtmusik is performed on this recording by the European Community Youth Orchestra. It is presented in a straightforward manner, showing the young people paying close attention to conductor James Judd as they play the work from memory. Schönberg’s Verklärte Nacht, op. 4, on the other hand, receives a more eccentric portrayal both musically and visually. Instead of choosing either the string sextet version or the string orchestra version of op. 4, Marthaler (or Judd?) has chosen to splice the two versions together, using the orchestra as timbral and emotional reinforcement to the on-screen narrative. Marthaler interweaves fin-de-siècle themes found in the works of Klimt and Freud with the events of the Dehmel poem on which the work is based, creating a postmodern visual pastiche to accompany the fine performance given by the Brodsky Quartet and members of the Basel Symphony Orchestra.

The Music of Man: Programs 7 & 8 [V078; 2:00:00]
Program 7: The Known and the Unknown: Between the two World Wars the pace of life quickened. Jazz became enormously popular in both Europe and America. In classical music, Aaron Copland and Arnold Schönberg opened new horizons. Radio and sound movies popularized all forms of music, from Toscanini to the Big Bands. – Program 8: Sound or Unsound: The post-war explosion of music, impelled by the LP, the transistor radio and the television, has taken Western music beyond early jazz into folk, rock, and electronic music. Yet as old rules are questioned, man (sic) clings to the forms of music that will always remain rooted in the deepest instincts of his nature.

Amerika [V079; 3:00:00]
This video encompasses four 45-minute programs intended for television broadcast. The theme, as the title reflects, is loosely organized around the topic »American music« – everything from Little Richard and the Rolling Stones to Dvořák and Ives appears with no guiding narration. Although it includes many interesting film clips and photos, none of the performers, films, or people interviewed is identified. The speakers interviewed often seem amateurish, and their comments are of little use without an extablished context.

Hakoah Lischot/Watermarks; Yaron Zilberman (2004) [V128; 80:00]
"Watermarks" tells the story of champion women swimmers at Hakoah Vienna, the legendary Jewish sports club. Closed by the Nazis in 1938, Hakoah, which means strength in Hebrew, trained winning athletes in many sports for 30 years. Their women swimmers dominated Austria's national competitions for a generation. Sixty-five years later, Zilberman located and visited these vibrantly accomplished women, now in their 80s and living on three continents. These women – funny, smart, and brave - are the film's heart. Persuaded to reunite in Vienna, the former teammates share a moving and complex journey into the past. In the film, they swim together once more in their old competition pool.
In 1933 Arnold Schönberg wrote a series of Aphorisms for the Hakoah, to be published in 1934 in the "Nachrichtenblatt des Schwimmklub Hakoah".
