Our second Hans Werner Henze installment includes works from a L'Oiseau Lyre LP (DSLO 5), and one work from an out-of-print CD in the Henze Collection on Deutsche Grammophon. Kammermusik (1958) features the tenor Philip Langridge, Timothy Walker on guitar, and the London Sinfonietta conducted by the composer. In Memoriam: Die Weisse Rose (1964-65) is played by the London Sinfonietta. Versuch uber Schweine (Essay on Pigs, 1968) features the voice of Roy Hart, the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble, and the English Chamber Orchestra directed by the composer.

The installment includes two PDF files: one with liner notes from the two LPs these works appeared on (see pp. 8, 17-22), and the other with booklet notes from the CD release containing Versuch uber Schweine. Two other works from that CD will be included in AGP66. Transcriptions of works from that CD were generously provided by one of the AGP's many enthusiastic partisans in Germany.
