About
Volume 3, the final instalment in the London Philharmonic Orchestra Anniversary collection, holds many treasures.
Klaus Tennstedt’s offering of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony (previously unreleased) comes from one of his last concerts with the Orchestra on 8 October 1992. As the conductor struggled with ill health, every one of his late concerts became an event, with members of the Orchestra and soloists responding and rising to the sense of occasion. This is an interpretation of grandeur and vastness deeply rooted in the central European tradition of the early 20th century.
Franz Welser-Möst was appointed the Orchestra’s principal conductor at 30 years of age – the youngest in the Orchestra’s history. His outstanding strength is in working with singers, his reading of vocal music and its accompaniment. On this disc Dame Felicity Lott is heard in a previously unreleased broadcast recording of the last scene of Richard Strauss’s Capriccio.
More recently, Vladimir Jurowski has undertaken in concert an extensive survey of the works of Shostakovich. This included the Fourteenth Symphony - a vivid and memorable performance which threw piercing light into the dark corners of Shostakovich’s harrowing and teasing premonition of death.
