Ein Neujahrskonzert mit Wiener Walzerseligkeit gehört für viele musikliebende Menschen so selbstverständlich zum Jahresablauf wie Sommer und Winter oder Weihnachten und Ostern. Schneetreiben und Nordwind vor der Tür und drinnen reiche Blumenbuketts und Johann Strauß: Da kann das neue Jahr kommen. Genau diese Erwartungen erfüllt auch das Neujahrskonzert der K & K Philharmoniker aus der Berliner Philharmonie. Natürlich mit Klassikern wie dem „Radetzky-Marsch“, „An der schönen blauen Donau“, dem „Frühlingsstimmen-Walzer“ und „G’schichten aus dem Wienerwald“, aber auch eher selten zu hörenden Nummern wie dem „Deutschen Union-Marsch“. Das Ganze mitreißend und authentisch österreichisch musiziert. Orchester und Dirigent haben sich seit 2002 den Ruf erstklassiger musikalischer Interpretationen erarbeitet und in bisher 16 europäischen Ländern mit jährlich über 100 Auftritten unter Beweis gestellt.

I have always regarded Friedrich Cerha as one of the most important personalities of his generation. I have followed his composing with great interest whenever I had the opportunity to listen to a work or read it during its creation. I am delighted that an album has now appeared which makes it possible to get an impression of his music’s remarkable development. I hope that this will serve to create an awareness of his true significance.
Pierre Boulez (Paris, 21 Dec. 2009)

Horizon 4 - Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Mahler, Glanert, Jeths and Roukens
ID: RCO11001
CDs: 2
Type: SACD
Subcollection: Violin

This fourth release in the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra’s ‘Horizon’ Series brings together two forms of homage. CD 1 represents a tribute to Gustav Mahler, the orchestra having devoted itself to a large-scale project commemorating the composer’s 150th birthday and the 100th anniversary of his death during its 2009- 2011 seasons. In addition to a chronological series of performances of all the great symphonies - effectively constituting the third Mahler Festival held in Amsterdam following those of 1925 and 1995, the orchestra programmed a series of concerts featuring works exhibiting a strong connection to Mahler’s compositions. Four world premieres of works composed for this series have been brought together on CD 1, the fifth being the opening title on CD 2.
The three other recordings on CD 2 feature members of the orchestra playing high-profile roles as solo or ensemble players, thereby symbolising a hommage to the virtuosity and the musical intelligence and flexibility of the 120 individual musicians making up the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. Oboist Alexei Ogrintchouk and trombonist Jörgen van Rijen are heard here in the world premieres of two works written for their instruments by Rodion Shchedrin and Luciano Berio respectively. Assistant principal violinist Marijn Mijnders and Monica Naselow, a member of the second violin section, team up in an explosive performance of Hindson’s 'Chrissietina’s Magic Fantasy' for two violins, the discovery of the chamber music marathon with which the Society of Friends of the Concertgebouw and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2009.

On the threshold of the 40th anniversary of death of the prominent 20th century French composer André Jolivet, Firma Melodiya presents a set of works by the French master.

“I want music to have its original ancient sense back, when it was an expression of a magical and invocating element of a religion which united people”, Jolivet wrote.

He was born in Paris to a family of an artist and a pianist, and became known as a member of the composers’ group La jeune France (Young France), which also included Olivier Messiaen. Edgard Varèse, one of the biggest master of musical avant-garde, was Jolivet’s teacher. Arnold Schoenberg’s works also had a certain influence on the young composer.

Jolivet’s works combined diverse features of 20th century art - on the one hand, new musical means (polytonality, atonality), echoes of jazz and non-European musical cultures and, on the other hand, choral polyphony of the renaissance era, and also clarity and accuracy of statement not devoid of theatrical affectation so characteristic of French art.

André Jolivet’s works are performed by well-known Soviet and Russian musicians such as Mstislav Rostropovich (cello), Alexander Korneyev (flute), Valery Popov (bassoon) and others.

Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra, Ensemble of Soloists of the USSR State Symphony Orchestra, State Symphony Orchestra of the Latvian SSR, Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra, André Jolivet (Composer), G. Rozhdestvensky (Conductor), V. Sinaisky (Conductor), A. Jolivet (Conductor) & 7 more

This collection includes some lesser known works by Borodin, including his Petite Suite for piano which is performed here in Glazunov’s instrumentation. Symphony No.3 was never finished. Borodin often played it to his friends and we can listen to it thanks to Glazunov writing down the first movement. All the works are interpreted by the expert Russian conductor Svetlanov.

Symphony No. 1 by A. Borodin composed in 1862-1867 and performed in 1869 is original in the image content. The music, epic according to its scope and Russian by nature, bears the genuine symphonism of the development of the major thematic grain. It was conceived in the land of endless valleys and grand deliberate rivers, it evokes in one's imagination the pictures of the spring waters, awakening of the life forces. The third movement of the symphony has the Oriental intonations. It took a long time (from 1869 to 1876) for Borodin to write Symphony No. 2. The premiere performance took place in 1877. The symphony was composed parallel with the opera “Prince Igor” which is close to the symphony by its imagery and character. The symphony was later called “Heroic” which is in perfect harmony with the music, full of spontaneous force, audacity and scope, the music monumental by its proportions, original by its image con tent which evokes in memory the Russian bylinas. Each of four movements is individual by nature: powerful, ponderous march of Allegro, irresistible in its flight Scherzo, songful Andante, reminding of the legendary singer Bayan, solemn Finale all this is united in the whole monumentary fresco painted with the bold wide strokes. Alexander Borodin began to work over the Third Symphony in winter 1883-84. The work over the Symphony continued up to the end of his life. He often played music of the Symphony to his friends, but he didn't write it down and unfortunately it remained unfinished. Now we can listen to it thanks to A. Glazunov who remembered the author's performing of the first movement of the Symphony and used Borodin's Scherzo, intended initially for a Quartet, for the second movement according to A. Borodins will. As a result of this now we have the score of two movements of the Third Symphony known as “Unfinished”. First the Symphony was performed on October 24, 1887 at a concert dedicated to A. Borodin's memory. The "Petite Suite" for Piano was written in 1885 in usual for the genre inter change of programme and dance miniatures. It is quite an original composition because of expressive manners and innovatory approaching of art task. "Petite Suite" is recorded on this disc in A. Glazunov's instrumentation. In Finale he used music of Borodin's piano Scherzo, repeating it twice in different instrumentation. Orchestral version of the Suite was premiered on October 28, 1889 in St. Petersburg, performed by the orchestra under Rimsky-Korsakov. Overture to the opera “Prince Igor” was written from memory and orchestrated by A. Glazunov, who heard its piano version in the author's performance. It is based on contrasts of Russian and oriental, polovtsian images, on opera's melodies and tunes.
