This is Alban Berg? 'Seven early songs' - what year(s) was this written, please? Still very tonal compositions. Beautiful, interesting orchestrations. Thanks for the upload!

These songs were written between 1905 and 1908. Berg orchestrated them later on in 1928. They are hauntingly beautiful indeed!

@mariandelochs i think they are not tonal, serial music gives the ability to write tonal succession as well, i think that this is in fact what makes bergs music so unique :)) transitions between tonal and serial successions :)
