Sport, Sport, Sport: III. Fans. Ritual, (K)ein Sommernachtstraum, Passacaglia, Seid nüchtern und wachet (Faust Cantata).

A collection with Seid Nüchtern und Wachet (better known as the Faust Cantata) as its anchor, this set also features inspired performances of the large, pulsing Ritual as well as a pair of additional large orchestral works: (K)ein Sommernachtstaum and Passacaglia. These are sprawling things, each invoking styles by the seeming dozens in blasts of energy. 1. Ritual - Leif Segerstam. (K)ein Sommernachtstraum - Tom Holst. 3. Passacaglia - Leif Segerstam 5. K)ein Sommernachtstraum begins with an innocent classical theme (Schnittke says it is inspired by Mozart and Schubert), which periodically degenerates (or evolves?) into delectable, hair-raising dissonance at surprising intervals. The humor is similar to that of Haydn's surprise symphony, but the collapses are less predictable in their frequency and more variable in their form.

After Schnittke's death, others worked to decipher his score. Nikolai Korndorf died before he could complete the task, which was continued and completed by Alexander Raskatov. In Raskatov's version, the three orchestral movements of Schnittke's symphony may be followed by a choral fourth, which is Raskatov's own Nunc Dimittis (in memoriam Alfred Schnittke). This version was premiered in Dresden, Germany June 16, 2007. Andrei Boreyko also has a version of the symphony. Three Sacred Hymns (1983–84). Concerto for Mixed Chorus (1984–85). String Quartet No. 4 (1989). Madrigal in Memoriam Oleg Kagan, for solo violin or violoncello (1990).
