Gunter Raphael's Symphony No. 1, composed in 1940, is characterised by it's melodic richness and expressive depth, which is strongly influenced by the late Romantic tradition. The masterful orchestration and the dramatic, almost poignant character of the music, which is wonderfully expressed in the interpretation by the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Fabian Enders, is particularly noteworthy. Although it was composed during the National Socialist era, it does not reflect any ideological instrumentalisation, but rather shows an artistic expression that is characterised by human feeling and inner reflection. It's harmonies are rich and complex without drifting into the radical modernism of the time, making the symphony a unique work in the context of 20th century music.
