Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Mariss Jansons (chief conductor) After the successful release of Richard Strauss's Ein Heldenleben in 2004, Mariss Jansons and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra once again present two familiar symphonic poems by Richard Strauss, who had close ties with the then fledgling Concertgebouw Orchestra. This CD brings together live performances of Don Juan and Eine Alpensinfonie which were recorded during the 2007-8 season and which met with great acclaim both in and outside the Netherlands.Although Don Juan and Eine Alpensinfonie were not dedicated to Willem Mengelberg and the Concertgebouw Orchestra, as Ein Heldenleben was, both works sound here as if they were written for the Amsterdam-based orchestra. "A rich, dramatic Don Juan, built on bitter-sweet woodwind timbres, magnificently bright brasses and uncommonly velvety strings." [Don Juan] The New York Times concert review |

Staatskapelle Dresden, Fabio Luisi “Luisi knows where he ants his centres of gravity: there's unique space around the rhapsody with solo strings that unfolds after entering the forest, the climaxes of the summit paean are surely paced, and the Epilogue is graced by superlative horn tone. ...we also have one of the most impassioned and committed Four Last Songs on disc. Anja Harteros puts heart and soul into each song... and her support from Luisi and the Staatskapelle orchestra is flexible and, ultimately, deeply moving.” BBC Music Magazine, February 2008 ***** “...the Alpensinfonie… is a genuinely symphonic work. Luisi does full justice to this aspect. It is a vital, clear-sighted, finely realised performance, well recorded. Luisi treasures but does not indulge the Four Last Songs which 1999 Cardiff Singer of the World winner Anja Harteros sings with clean phrasing and penetrating tone.” Gramophone Magazine, April 2008 BBC Music Magazine Orchestral Choice - February 2008 |
