| Description: | The legendary conductor Neeme Järvi celebrated
his eighty-fifth birthday in the summer of 2022, in
Tallinn, giving a series of concerts with his beloved
Estonian National Symphony Orchestra. This
album serves not just as a commemoration of
those wonderful concerts, but also as a personal
calling card for this remarkable musician.
The concert overture Polonia, published in 1836,
may well have been inspired by Wagnerâ??s
encounters with defeated Polish nationalists in
Leipzig in 1832. Wagner wrote several concert
overtures during this period â?? whilst plans for his
revolutionary operatic output were developing â??
including Christoph Columbus and Rule Britannia!!
Max Reger composed the Serenade in G major in
1905 â?? 06; it demonstrates the style and talent of
this too-little-heard composer. Brahms set
Schicksalslied (Song of Destiny), a poem by
Friedrich Hölderlin, in two movements with
chorus, but then added a third, an orchestral
postlude. Ave verum corpus, possibly Mozartâ??s
best-known setting for chorus, rounds off the
programme. - ..
