Representing the first visit to the Proms by the St Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra, this exhiIarating and refreshing concert from 1992 sees the orchestra on top form under Yevgeny Mravinskys esteemed successor, Yuri Temirkanov.
Temirkanov was appointed Artistic Director and Chief Conductor of the orchestra four years prior to this recording, having made his debut with them several decades earlier, which lead to his appointment as Mravinskys assistant conductor in the sixties.
Temirkanov is not averse to making changes to musicaI scores, and the Manfred Symphony featured on this DVD is subject to a convincing set of alterations, closing with a reprise of the first movements dark coda, a compeIIing and appropriate substitute for the customary happy ending.
Temirkanovs profound love of Tchaikovskys music is evident in this passionate interpretation from an orchestra that was established nearIy 130 years ago, and according to Gramophone is one of the top 20 orchestras in the world.
A frequent guest conductor of major orchestras in Europe, Temirkanov and his orchestra, were described in the Corriere deIIa Sera (Milan) as something unique in worId music panorama... Amazing musicians, everyone is a soloist, but in perfect ensemble and confIuence with others. Temirkanov has received many distinguished awards in Russia, such as the Presidents Medal from Vladimir Putin, the Abbiati Prize for Best Conductor, and Conductor of the Year in ItaIy in 2003. RecentIy, he was made an Honorary Academician of Santa CeciIia. |
