“Beecham showed a very special feeling for Grieg's Peer Gynt music, and to hear 'Morning', the gentle textures of 'Anitra's Dance' or the eloquent portrayal of the 'Death of Ase' under his baton is a uniquely rewarding experience.” Penguin Guide, 2011 edition

This latest release in the highly regarded SOMM-BEECHAM series features the long-awaited live performance of Saint-Saëns’ Symphony No.3 and is a premiere release on CD. Beecham first conducted this work in the presence of the composer himself.

“The Somm label has unearthed some more buried Beecham treasure – and it’s pure gold...the recordings do have their limitations. Tubby-sounding timpani are a frequent feature and the strings sound a bit glassy at times...Overall, however, the recordings have come up remarkably well given that they’re nearly sixty years old. Forget any sonic limitations: what really matters here is that we have four fine and very enjoyable Beecham recordings” MusicWeb International, June 2012

“The live recording of Saint-Saëns’s no doubt overblown Third Symphony...is simply magnificent. It may not be a major work, but in Beecham’s and the RPO’s skilled hands it is a hugely enjoyable one. The D’Indy performance is magical.” Sunday Times, 17th June 2012

To list the various distinctions awarded to the recordings that make up this sumptuous offering is almost impossible; suffice it to say that the entire series received the Grieg Award in 2007, the year of the hundredth anniversary of the death of the composer, as well as a very special commendation by the UK Grieg Society the same year. During 2003-2006, as the individual discs were released, reviewers all over the world were heaping praise over the series – astoundingly enough, as this is repertoire that at least in part belong to some of the most well-represented on disc. But this did not seem to matter to the critics, who described the performance of the Piano Concerto as one that ‘will make you fall in love with the music all over again’ American Record Guide and that of the Holberg Suite ‘so compelling that it simply makes you forget about any other’ Classics Today.com

“This exemplary disc also offers us an opportunity to sample Grieg’s virtues and limitations under the best possible conditions, for performances and recording are both outstanding.” Gramophone Magazine
