Description: | Appalachian Spring/Concer by Various, released 7 March 2003.
This version of Appalachian Spring/Concer comes as a 1xCD. - NASHVILLE CHAMBER ORCH./P.GAMBILLThis disc substantially duplicates the repertoire on an all-Copland program produced by DG with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. However, where DG included the Short Symphony, Naxos offers the Clarinet Concerto. While the Nashville Chamber Orchestra doesn't offer quite the tonal refinement and Polish of Orpheus, it basically plays just as well, and it's slightly weightier, gutsier, more rustic sonority arguably suits the music even better. In the famous rehearsal disc that accompanied Copland's own recording of the original chamber version of Appalachian Spring, he can be heard exhorting his players not to sentimentalize the music: "... it's a little too much on the Massenet-side," he tells them. Obviously Paul Gambill understands this point, for he offers interpretations ideally poised between warmth and simplicity, full of those clean and clear sonorities that Copland made his own.Recorded at Austin Peay State University, Clarksville, TN on Mary 27 and November 12 & 13, 2001
