Highly personal interpretations from a great Tchaikovsky conductor, September 11, 2007
By Santa Fe listener
The rap on Bernstein in later life was that his conducting became slow and eccentric, a dog-eared cliche that overlooks his continuing inspiration. It seems like a double standard to praise Celibidache for his glacial tempos while condeming Bernstein for readings that contain far more interesting phrasing and inner vitality. This reissue is a very cheap way to acquire all of Bernstein's late Tchaikovsky done for DG.
The contents are as follows:
Symphony No.4 in F minor op.36. Francesca da Rimini op.32. Symphony No.5 in E minor op.64. Romeo and Juliet. Symphony No.6 in B minor op.74 'Pathetique'. Hamlet op.67. Marche slave op.31. Capriccio italien op.45. Ouverture solenelle 1812 op.49.
In other words, you can get the contents of four full-price CDs for under $20 on the used market. In all three symphonies Bernstein is expessive and slower than the norm, taking his time to cherish every phrase and to expand upon the underlying emotion. His approach drives some critics crazy -- so be it. Frankly, I was mesmerized from beginning to tend. The orchestral playing by the NY Phil. (from live conerts) and sonics are both fine. I can't predict who will enjoy these readings, but if you already like Klemperer and Celibidache, the broad tempos here won't throw you off. If you want thrills and sills, stick with Mravinsky, Markevitch, and other Russian maestros.
