Free Music Notes for Penderecki: Orchestral Works, Vol. 01 Album
Free Music Review: Great playing of wonderful inventive music old and new
Hit: 5 Stars
I cannot add much to the other reviews except to confirm the wonderfully seamless performances and impassioned committment to Penderecki's music. The Threnody still stands profoundly the test of time, on both dimensions that there is still oppression in the world, and the piece remains a true masterwork for strings within the full meaning of that definition. The musicians here really throw themselves into the extended sonorities Penderecki so painstakingly prepares, the screeches, playing the highest tone possible as at the opening, and the col legno battatuto, tapping with the wood of the bow. The well spaced clusters residing within each string section also sends goose-bumps up and down anyone's flesh. The Third Symphony sounds like Penderecki was born of another generation, and it is interesting because of that. Like he is choosing to speak another language. But it sounds like Penderecki not Shostakovich, that argument doesn't work anymore.
