Omitted repeat[edit]

The last section mentions a repeat of 175 measures that is often omitted from performances and recordings; it would be helpful if someone could add which well-known recordings do or do not omit this repeat. Or maybe simply a typical duration of the piece with and without the repeat; the Abbado/Stern/Serkin/LSO recording I have is almost 37 minutes, I guess that is the "short" version? 62.205.90.240 (talk) 19:28, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sinopoli/Dresden has 34:09, Richter/Barshai 41:33. Anybody want to add a "Discography" section to this article? That would be a good place to put timing information. G41rn8 (talk) 18:57, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Might it be useful to point out that Berg provided for performances in which the movements are separated by intervals and for those in which they are heard continuously without breaks, as he seems to have originally intended, by composing conclusions for the first and second movements? It does seem easier to grasp what is going on int eh central movement if one hears bot the beginning and the end, but it's not essential. A performance from Bavaria given in 1959, with Wolfgang Marschner and Carl Seeman, under the direction of, of all people, Paul Hindemith, is continuous throughout. The musical acronyms for his friends appear throughout, and seem to stand out more in the continuous version.Delahays (talk) 18:18, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
