Hi-Res Booklet
It is heartening to see conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin, who has gone on to big things, continuing to record with the Orchestre Metropolitain de Montréal, the group that put him on the map, especially inasmuch as this orchestra is perhaps among North America's most underrated. He is in the midst of a Sibelius cycle that has offered many joys. Nézet-Séguin's years of experience with the orchestra show up in precise renditions of difficult passages like the one around the three-minute mark in the first movement of the Symphony No. 3 in C major, Op. 52, where the music recedes almost to nothingness. The finale of this symphony, with its whole-tone scales, goes out not in a blaze of glory but in quiet transcendence. Nézet-Séguin's readings are restrained on the whole, and the grim Symphony No. 4 in A minor, Op. 63, does not layer on the depression; the music is almost calmly resigned. It is different from the norm, but it is again realized with an impressive level of detail. AMTA Classique's engineers get top-notch results from the Maison symhonique in Montreal, with the hushed passages achieving a remarkable kind of concentration. Fresh in conception and superb in execution, this is a major recording of perhaps Sibelius' most difficult pair of symphonic works.© James Manheim /TiVo

Komm, süsser Tod, BWV 478 (Arr. L. Stokowski for Orchestra)

Orchestre Metropolitain

Classical - Released October 1, 2016 | ATMA Classique

Hi-Res
Since 2007, ATMA Classique has been intermittently issuing Yannick Nézet-Séguin's critically praised recordings of Anton Bruckner's symphonies with the Orchestre Métropolitain, and the series is gradually approaching completion with the appearance of the early symphonies. For this 2016 release, Nézet-Séguin turns in a warm and expressive performance of the Symphony No. 2 in C minor, using Robert Haas' 1938 edition of the 1877 version. This is not especially controversial, despite the post-millennial trend to record the original version, though collectors should know that this edition was quite popular with 20th century conductors and has been commonly recorded. This live performance offers dynamic playing and brisk pacing, yet Nézet-Séguin also allows the gentler passages to have prominence, not only to relieve some of the tension but also to bring out the lyrical aspects of the first two movements. The clarity of the Métropolitain's woodwinds deserves special mention, because they have many lovely passages and their tone colors add a special sweetness to this symphony, which is not as brass heavy as Bruckner's later works. Listeners who are unfamiliar with the early symphonies would do well to try this exceptional performance, because it is quite enjoyable for its crisp details, smooth phrasing, and wonderful reproduction.© TiVo

Mahler 10 (Completed D. Cooke, 1976)

Orchestre Metropolitain

Classical - Released September 1, 2015 | ATMA Classique

Hi-Res Booklet
Of the various completions of Gustav Mahler's unfinished Symphony No. 10 in F sharp major, Deryck Cooke's third performing version from 1976 has been recorded more often than any other. This live recording by Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Orchestre Métropolitain offers a vivid interpretation that reveals all the details of orchestration and connecting material that Cooke and his assistants, Colin Matthews and David Matthews, added to their revision (1966-1972), after studying the full set of Mahler's sketches. Cooke never claimed to have the last word in realizing Mahler's final symphony, and there are fascinating completions by Clinton A. Carpenter, Joseph H. Wheeler, Remo Mazzetti, Jr., and Rudolf Barshai, among others, that have found adherents. A recording of "Cooke III," as it is usually called, is worth having for the sake of hearing the authentic Mahler details along with the revised orchestration, which has always been the main issue in any reconstruction. Nézet-Séguin charges the performance with high energy, and the orchestra plays with the intensity needed to bring off Mahler's most extreme expressions. But the sound of the orchestration is striking in its harshness and weight, suggesting what might have been a new direction for Mahler's style, had he lived. Still, what we have of the symphony is profoundly impressive, and Nézet-Séguin has turned in a gripping performance that dedicated Mahler fans will want to hear.© TiVo

Saint-Saëns: Symphony No. 3

Orchestre Metropolitain

Classical - Released March 1, 2006 | ATMA Classique

Long used as a vehicle for showing off advances in recording technology, Camille Saint-Saëns' Symphony No. 3 in C minor, "Organ," has been featured as a sonic extravaganza in almost every format, and seems made to order for SACD. Due to its wide dynamic range, variety of textures, and vibrant timbral palette, this popular symphony offers everything a connoisseur of audio fidelity could expect in a demonstration piece. But beyond its showy aspects, Saint-Saëns' best-known symphony is also a stirring work that is representative of his mature, late-Romantic style, classically poised and elegant in form, but rich in harmonies and compelling in its long-breathed melodies. This exciting performance by organist Philippe Bélanger, pianists Jennifer Bourdages and Danielle Boucher, and the Metropolitan Orchestra of Greater Montreal, conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin, delivers both brilliant effects and transparent playing; especially gratifying to hear are the details in the orchestration, particularly the inner voices in the counterpoint, which are often lost in less attentive performances. Sometimes Nézet-Séguin's tempos seem a little on the slow side, perhaps to allow for better coordination between the organ and the orchestra, and the extraordinarily lively acoustics of the St. Joseph Oratory may have contributed to the conductor's cautiousness. But when considered as a whole, the performance works, and the wonderfully resonant sound and the clear details are a reasonable trade-off for the slightly slower pacing. The solo encores -- Alexandre Guilmant's March on Handel's "Lift Up Your Heads," Louis Vierne's Carillon de Westminster, and the Allegro vivace from Charles-Marie Widor's Symphony No. 6 for organ -- provide Bélanger a place to shine and are lollipops organ fans will appreciate, though listeners who buy this SACD for the phenomenal sound will find these pieces less colorful than the symphony.© TiVo
