It will be interesting to compare the Billy The Kid from this new recording – captured live in June 2019 – by Gianandrea Noseda, whose insatiable curiosity for international music (this is after all a seminal piece of American repertoire written by Copland in 1938) was evidenced by his magnificent collection of Italian music for Chandos, with the older version by Morton Gould for RCA in 1958. Less concerned with the narrative and evocative aspects of ballet, the Italian maestro conducts Billy The Kid like a grand symphonic suite, nonetheless relishing the marvellous originality the American composer employs in his orchestration. Familiar with the music of Central Europe, Gianandrea Noseda also presents a sleek and light (initial Allegro molto) version of Dvořák’s Ninth Symphony with beautiful polyphonic counterpoints at the head of his new orchestra, the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington. Some might say that the sound recording lacks definition, but you can only admire Noseda’s constantly fluid and flexible rhythm, vivacious and singing. This first release on the American orchestra’s label leaves you impatient and wanting more! © Pierre-Yves Lascar/Qobuz
