Pavel Haas Quartet (Supraphon) 'The Pavel Haas Quartet play with plenty of feeling and they also relish the rhythmic cut and thrust of the Molto vivace third movement, capturing to perfection the more relaxed Trio’s sunny spirit. The finale opens to a gentle smile then keys up for some dancing exuberance, a high-point on this particular recording (...
Sols; Czech Philharmonic Orchestra / Charles Mackerras (Decca) 'The strings produce ravishing sounds, refined and transparent in the lovely evocations of water, often with instruments muted. Mackerras is just as bitingly dramatic as Neumann in the Slavonic dance rhythms that punctuate the score, but he is also far warmer in the rest, whether in the...
Chamber Orchestra of Europe / Nikolaus Harnoncourt (Warner Teldec) 'None are better played than this Chamber Orchestra of Europe CD where pooled individuality sheds fresh light on virtually every piece. If you don’t know the music‚ Harnoncourt will make you love it. And if you do know it‚ he’ll make you love it even more...' Read the review
Budapest Festival Orchestra / Iván Fischer (Channel) 'Iván Fischer is truly “one on his own”, a fund of fascinating interpretative ideas which, whether or not you always agree with them, invariably make musical sense. On this new version of Dvořák’s Seventh Symphony, for example, the way he “lifts” the transition into the second subject, with strin...
Pierre-Laurent Aimard pfRoyal Concertgebouw Orchestra / Nikolaus Harnoncourt (Warner Classics) 'Straight to the top of the list for this one! Even on its best showings – Richter and Carlos Kleiber, Firkuny under Somogyi – Dvořák’s Piano Concerto has never quite managed to cast off its Cinderella rags. With this recording, the ball beckons, and ther...
Collegium Vocale Gent; Royal Flemish Philharmonic / Philippe Herreweghe (PHI) 'What is especially pleasing is the soloists’ contribution. They really listen to each other and achieve a subtle blend with plenty of non-competitive ‘give and take’. Top prize goes to the tenor Maximilian Schmitt, who is always strain-free and equally magnificent whethe...
Czech Philharmonic Orchestra / Charles Mackerras (Supraphon) 'Premonitions of Janáček abound in these wonderful pieces and Sir Charles Mackerras, like Sir Simon Rattle on his opulent and vividly played Berlin recording, seems to acknowledge the fact in performance, most particularly at 7'44" or thereabouts into The Wild Dove, which could easily hav...
Jonathan Biss pf Elias String Quartet (Onyx) 'Biss/Elias couple Dvořák’s Piano Quintet in a performance no less notable than the recent Awards-nominated one from Christoph Eschenbach and the Thymos Quartet, less monumental, perhaps, in that remarkable slow movement – the interface between the early Dvořák of the Cypresses and the late dumka style –...
Sols; Warsaw Philharmonic Choir and Orchestra / Antoni Wit (Naxos) 'The quartet of soloists are magnificent. In the Sanctus, Christiane Libor is utterly magnificent in her soaring ‘Pleni sunt caeli’ and Janusz Monarcha’s fruity, Slavic approach in the ‘Recordare’ is spot-on. Orchestrally, this is a stunning performance. Perfectly blended woodwind a...
Christian Tetzlaff vn Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra / John Storgårds (Ondine) 'There’s a winning suppleness about the playing, the sense that rather than being chained to the bar-lines he’s able to stretch across them, always the sign of a great artist. I also like the way he underlines the chordal writing at 7'23" into the first movement. The sl...

Stunning Dvořak and Martinu Piano Concertos. David Hurwitz. Artistic Quality: 10. Sound Quality: 10. However unlikely it may seem, these two very different piano concertos make logical disc mates. Both take advantage of an unusually close relationship between piano and orchestra, producing a wholly original and effective expressive synthesis ...
