Maya Boog, Franziska Gottwald, Rolf Romei, Christopher Bolduc & Babette Mondry Tschechischer Philharmonischer Chor Brünn & Sinfonieorchester Basel, Marko Letonja A landmark recording in being the first ever complete survey of Weingartner’s symphonies. Symphony No. 7 calls for a full orchestra, reinforced brass, choir, four vocal soloists and solo organ – all skilfully blended together to create an impressive work and one which ought to be better known in the symphonic repertoire. “The singing, from soloists and choir alike, is more than up to the task, as is the surround-sound recording. The work as a whole may not quite add up to the sum of the parts but some of the parts are very fine indeed.” International Record Review, May 2013 “this basically enjoyable if often imitative music is well worth resurrection” MusicWeb International, 16th May 2013 |
