Free Music Notes for Tchaikovsky: The Complete Symphonies
Free Music Review: Surely the successor to Mravinsky
Hit: 5 Stars
For those seeking the definitive recording of the Tchaikovsky cycle, look no further. Jansons brings us something fresh and new, a new spark into the classics and absolutely breathtaking masterworks that are Tchaikovsky's mature symphonies. I tend to think Jansons learned quite a bit from Mravinsky about Tchaikovsky interpretation, and though at the same time that the interpretations are similar in many regards, Jansons most apparently has a gift for presenting old ideas in new ways.
Although the last three symphonies are perhaps some of the best recorded, the earlier three do not stand at the same level. The differences between the first and second three are subtle, though noticable. They lack the finesse, the pathos, and frankly the more Tchaikovsky-en nuances. Not to say these recordings are bad, but they are simply outshined by the other three.
I've never cared for the Manfred, never understood it. Jansons and the Oslo Phil nevertheless provide us with a decent, though not entirely fantastic, rendition.
A powerful set altogether, a staple for the Tchaikovsky fans out there.
Tchaikovsky: The Complete Symphonies Poster
These performances established both the conductor and the Oslo Philharmonic as artists of international stature. Indeed, this is one of the finest sets of Tchaikovsky symphonies ever recorded. Mariss Jansons earned his stripes in Leningrad under the legendary Evgeni Mravinsky, and while his performances aren't as manic as his mentor's, they are highly disciplined, intense, and superbly recorded. If you're looking for great Tchaikovsky in modern digital sound, this set's the one to get. --David HurwitzClassical Music CDs
