| | Description: | Sony Classical is pleased to announce an exceptional new batch of reissues from the CBS/Sony and RCA Victor/BMG back catalogues. This latest instalment of the popular series showcases two of the most fascinating and provocative conductors of the last half century, as well as two legendary string quartets and some remarkable pianists playing treasures of Viennese Classicism.
Sony Classicalâ??s new release features yet another authoritatively idiomatic interpreter, Michael Tilson Thomas, conducting three great orchestras in the major orchestral and choral works of his compatriot Charles Ives on 4 CDs. The recordings featuring the Chicago Symphony and Amsterdam Concertgebouw orchestras date from 1981 to 1989; those with the San Francisco Symphony from 1999.
Gramophone called the disc containing Three Places in New England with the San Francisco Symphony â??as fine a collection of [Ivesâ??s] songs and short orchestral pieces as Iâ??ve found on one discâ?.
Also from Gramophone: â??A stellar performance of the Fourth [Symphony with the Chicago orchestra]. Not only are all the elements in place â?? no easy feat in itself â?? but the performance revels in the pieceâ??s American roots, with marches and ragtime passages tossed off with as much apparent simplicity as the pieceâ??s modernist languageâ? and â??Tilson Thomas moves through his seasonal year [the â??New England Holidaysâ?] with fine flourish that balances the musical fireworks of â??The Fourth of Julyâ?? and the sombre moments of â??Decoration Dayâ??. [He] is blessed with Chicagoâ??s legendary brass section â?Ś and the CSO Chorus under [Margaret] Hillis â?? about as unapologetically American in their musicality as a conductor could find.â? And the Penguin Guide called this last disc â??among the most impressive Ives records in the catalogueâ?. - Sony Classical's new release features yet another authoritatively idiomatic interpreter, Michael Tilson Thomas, conducting three great orchestras in the major orchestral and choral works of his compatriot Charles Ives on 4 albums.
