Just whoa! Fun fact, the first time that this piece of art was released on an album was back in 1975 performed by Mr. Rudolf Irmisch. The album was never issued to the public though. Richard Gilbert, who ran the Grenadilla Records, got the tapes from an eastern European source and pressed about 1000 copies. He sent a few advance copies to subscribers, reviewers and libraries, but then he couldn't clear the copyright permissions and had to destroy the entire run. There might be somewhere less than an about 100 copies in existence. So glad and grateful that this is here right now so a larger group of people can experience this masterpiece without the need to pay a crazy amount of money for it. Thank you so much for this!

How patronising the comment by Paul Bunyan is. It's by no means a little piece, and in its own way, very original (not least on the choice of instruments). Stravinsky's own neoclassical period, which was very extended, is one piece of evidence to back up the point that Bartje makes.

Bruch was already outdated when he landed his only real hit: The 1st Violinconcerto. He refused to go further than Mendelssohn did in harmony 20 years before him. Not to say that his music isn't nicely crafted, it is just outdone by his contemporaries. Just consider: His last work, the Octett for Strings was written in the same year as Bartok wrote "The miraculous Mandarin". They sound like they are 100 years apart.
