Eli Goren, Bela Dakany & Vigay Denis BBC Symphony Orchestra, Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt Recorded: BBC Studios, Maida Vale, London, 11 April 1971 (Weber), Royal Festival Hall, London, 14 April 1971 (Tippett, Brahms) “[These works] show what a fine musician the conductor was. Perhaps he was too undemonstrative to make a glamorous international career, but the Euryanthe Overture — taut, precise rhythms, translucent woodwind — is outstanding. The same virtues are evident in a lucid, crisply articulated Brahms 4. The first two movements, arguably, lack warmth, but the scherzo is splendidly incisive and the finale, after a surprisingly slow start, generates powerful momentum and builds to an exciting climax.” Sunday Times, 17th August 2008 *** “First-rate Tippett from the composer's unlikely champion; bracing Brahms, too…” Gramophone Magazine, September 2008 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
