Mahler : Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection"

Valery Gergiev

Symphonic Music - Released September 30, 2016 | MUNCHNER PHILHARMONIKER GBR

Hi-Res Booklet Distinctions 5 de Diapason
In keeping with his strong devotion to late Romantic music, Valery Gergiev has become a major interpreter of the symphonies of Gustav Mahler, which he first demonstrated in his exceptional audiophile cycle with the London Symphony Orchestra. This 2016 CD on the Münchner Philharmoniker label finds Gergiev revisiting the Symphony No. 2 in C minor, "Resurrection," one of the most impressive works in the symphonic repertoire and a perennial favorite with audiences. The live performance with the Munich Philharmonic was recorded in September 2015, and featured soprano Anne Schwanewilms and mezzo-soprano Olga Borodina as soloists, and the Munich Philharmonic Choir, in a powerful reading that continues Gergiev's streak of success with Mahler. There are no great surprises in this "Resurrection," which follows conventional tempos and pacing, and the convenience of having the whole performance contained on one disc is a great help in appreciating the overall trajectory of the piece, from the startling opening movement to the ecstatic conclusion of the choral finale. Because of the wide dynamic range of the recording, some adjustments must be made to find a comfortable volume setting, but the sound of the orchestra is extraordinary for conventional digital, especially in the enormous climaxes of the first movement, the scherzo, and the beginning of the finale. Yet it seems to be in the quieter moments that this recording pays off most, because the fine details that are often lost in other recordings come through with great clarity and presence.© TiVo

Mahler : Symphony No. 4

Valery Gergiev

Symphonies - Released September 29, 2017 | MUNCHNER PHILHARMONIKER GBR

Hi-Res Booklet Distinctions 4 étoiles Classica - 5 Sterne Fono Forum Klassik
Gustav Mahler and the Munich Philharmonic share a very special connection. As a composer he sustainably linked the 19th century Austro-German tradition and the modernism of the early 20th century. The world premiere of his Symphony No. 4 took place under his baton on 25 November 1901 in Munich’s Großen Kaim-Saal with the then called Kaim-Orchester, present day Munich Philharmonic. His works have been a substantial part of the Munich Philharmonic’s core repertoire ever since and the orchestra has excelled on many occasions. After the MPHIL release of Mahler’s Symphony No. 2 in September 2016 now follows the release of the Symphony No. 4 with which the orchestra’s history is so closely intertwined. The live concert recording released on this album took place at the Philharmonie im Gasteig in Munich, the orchestra’s home, with Salzburg soprano Genia Kuehmeier. Valery Gergiev has paid the Austro-German repertoire particular attention throughout his career, which ignited a lasting fascination for Gustav Mahler. Over recent decades he has continued to explore the Austro-German repertoire, garnering adulation, especially for his interpretations of Wagner, Strauss, Mahler and Bruckner – music that is at the very heart of the Munich Philharmonic’s repertoire. © Warner Classics

Franz Schubert : Moments musicaux

Valery Afanassiev

Classical - Released September 28, 2012 | ECM New Series

Hi-Res Booklet Distinctions 5 de Diapason
Russian pianist Valery Afanassiev recorded an album of Schubert's late piano sonatas that inspired wildly divergent reactions with its tremendously unorthodox readings. This release on ECM shares much with the earlier album, and it may too be one of those things you either love or hate. As with the earlier release, CD buyers will get Afanassiev's own quirky but far from dull notes, which range over topics from Goethe's Faust to Bruckner's Symphony No. 9 to Japanese philosophy. Afanassiev once again favors slow tempos. They're not quite as extreme as on the sonata album, but his approach is similar: he presents, so to speak, exploded views of each phrase of Schubert's music. His lines are fantastically detailed without being particularly expressive, and this is probably what fascinates some listeners while driving others crazy. It may be that his Schubert playing works better in some pieces than in others. The six Moments Musicaux, D. 780, will really make you sit up and take notice. What Afanassiev catches here is that these works (not a set, but substantial little pieces far from the bonbons that the publisher-supplied title would suggest) were written for an intimate, sophisticated audience that would have gotten his Faust references and would have been interested in a performance that explores the structure of the music in the way he does. The Piano Sonata in D major, D. 850, is not nearly as successful; the limpid central movements simply plod. The very fine sound and the overall abstract quality of ECM's presentation both work as X factors in favor of what many will still find a slightly bizarre recording, but one that can't be easily dismissed.© TiVo

Mahler : Symphony No. 7

Valery Gergiev

Symphonic Music - Released August 12, 2008 | LSO Live

Hi-Res Booklet
« Recorded live at the Barbican in March, Valery Gergiev's performance of the Seventh Symphony as part of his complete Mahler cycle with the London Symphony is typical of his no-holds-barred approach to a composer who himself always goes to the ultimate limits. Even by Mahler's standards, this work explores a huge range of emotion, while highlighting his tendency to undercut and contradict his own material. The weird and grotesque constantly subvert beauty and aspiration in this thrilling interpretation, right through to the ice-cold shudder that precedes the final chord.» (George Hall, Independent on Sunday, 10th August 2008)« This is a terrific, gripping performance from Gergiev and the LSO of Mahler s Seventh Symphony, an edge-of-the-seat experience of a work that can often be elusive. Gergiev's starting point is to get the detail right. No stressed accent is ever underplayed, no subsidiary counterpoint or detail of colour goes unnoticed. Helped in these live performances by a highly energised orchestra eager to display its finesse, he brings an almost palpable darkness, fear and mystery to the three central movements, giving an impression, in the central scherzo, of hot, tormenting laser lights darting in from all angles, and imbues the outer movements with an almost frenzied momentum.» (Stephen Pettitt, The Sunday Times, 17th August, 2008)
