Hit: 5 Stars
Mariss Jansons recorded Rachmaninov's three symphonies separately in the early '90s; this remastering imparts more clarity and bite to the first and finest of those recordings. As the liner notes imply, Jansons can be idiosyncratic in this composer's music, and in the Third Symphony that manifests itself in a distinctly "Russian" orchestral sound for a work that was apparently composed with the satiny-smooth Philadelphia Orchestra in mind. But the grittier timbres help bring out the characteristically Rachmaninovesque melancholy of the writing, as Jansons also highlights its taut construction. The Symphonic Dances are if anything even finer; Jansons never loses sight of the dance as well as symphonic elements, and there's a palpable sense of menace. Easily one of the best things this under-rated conductor has done.
