Description:

Orchestral Works Vol.3 by E. Goossens, released 7 February 2020. This version of Orchestral Works Vol.3 comes as a 1xSuper Audio. - MELBOURNE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

Continuing their series of orchestral works by Sir Eugene Goossens, Sir Andrew Davis and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra turn to the Phantasy Concerto for Violin and the Second Symphony. Goossens was born in London in 1893, into a family of Belgian conductors and musicians. He trained in Brugesand at the Royal College of Music (studying composition under Stanford), played violin in the Queen's Hall Orchestra under Sir Henry Wood, and became Sir Thomas Beecham's go-to stand-in because of his ability to conduct the most demanding programmes on little or no rehearsal. Goossens gave the first UK concert performance of Stravinsky's Le Sacre du printemps, in 1921, and in 1923 became the first music director of the newly formed Rochester Philharmonic, before succeeding Fritz Reiner, in 1931, as chief conductor of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. He spent nine years in Australia, as chief conductor of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, and was instrumental in the planning of the Sydney Opera House. Both works recorded here were composed towards the end of his life. The Second Symphony, dating from 1942-45, is a vivid and personal response to WWII. The Phantasy Concerto for Violin and Orchestra was originally promised to Heifetz, who never performed it. Having returned to London, Goossens gave the work's premiere in a BBC broadcast in July 1959, and this was followed by a Proms performance in 1960; on both occasions the soloist was Tessa Robbins. Sir Andrew Davis and his Melbourne forces perform these rarely heard works with care and finesse, and Tasmin Little shines as the soloist in the Phantasy Concerto. The album is recorded in Surround Sound.

"Sinfonie 2; Phantasy Concerto, op.63" in the SACD+CD format is a remarkable release by Chandos Records, featuring the acclaimed violinist Tasmin Little, conductor Andrew Davis, and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. This album presents two significant works by British composer Sir Arnold Bax: his powerful Second Symphony and the evocative Phantasy for Viola and Orchestra (op.63). The performances are characterized by their emotional depth and technical brilliance, capturing both the lush orchestration and intricate melodies that define Bax?s style. The hybrid SACD+CD format ensures audiophiles can enjoy superior sound quality on any system. Tasmin Little is one of Britain?s leading violinists with an international reputation for her expressive playing and wide-ranging repertoire. She has performed with major orchestras worldwide and received numerous awards including a Classic BRIT Award. Sir Andrew Davis is renowned for his interpretations of British music as well as his leadership roles at prestigious institutions such as Lyric Opera of Chicago and BBC Symphony Orchestra. Chandos Records stands out among classical labels for its commitment to high-fidelity recordings, innovative programming, and support of both established artists and emerging talent. Founded in 1979 in England, Chandos has garnered multiple Grammy nominations along with Gramophone Awards?making it a trusted name among discerning listeners seeking exceptional musical experiences.
