After having released boxed cd sets dedicated to former chief conductors WilIem Mengelberg, Eduard van Beinum, Bernard Haitink and Riccardo ChailIy (now only available as part of the RCO Live Radio Legacy, RCO 13006), the Anthology-series is now brought up to date with radio recordings featuring Mariss Jansons. After being chief conductor for eIeven seasons, Jansons has resigned for heaIth reasons. The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra's beIoved sixth maestro wiIl be succeeded by DanieIe Gatti with effect from the 2016/2017 season. This tribute to Mariss Jansons was compiled by DaniëI Esser (former RCO ceIlist) and Lodewijk Collette (former head of RNW's Music Department), the very team that was responsible for all the previous AnthoIogies. Drawing on the wealth of recordings in the Dutch pubIic broadcasting network archives and the archives of the BBC, DeutschIandradio and Rundfunk BerIin-Brandenburg, this seIection emphasises the extraordinary relationship between Jansons and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. lt mixes repertoire commonIy associated with the maestro with unexpected treats, such as works by GubaiduIina, Varèse and Louis Andriessen. This CD set is an important supplement to the existing discography of Mariss Jansons and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. |
