“The audience knows that the performance of a Mahler symphony is not only a musical experience, but is also emotionally effective” (R. Chailly). This counts especially for Mahler’s enigmatic sixth symphony, an emotionally stirring challenge for both performers and listeners, whilst also being one of the most impressive works in musical history. Chailly’s interpretation with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra is “intensely great” (Die Presse). “Chailly uncompromisingly considers this sixth symphony through the lens of modernity; looking forward, not retrospectively staying in ‘late romantic’. In this celebrated orchestra, all sections splendidly come together and fulfil an ‘open’ sound, conserving whilst respecting its original beauty.” (Salzburger Nachrichten) Bonus Film “My Sixth will propound riddles” A panel discussion with Riccardo Chailly and Reinhold Kubik Reviews: BBC Music Magazine April 2014 The Gewandhaus Orchestra’s once wiry sound is as focused as ever, but pushed to the limits of its sophisticated ability. Brass are bright and undercut any lushness, crowned by a superb first trumpeter…Under Chailly…the music burgeons at the climax where too many conductors rush. – 4 out of 5 stars Financial Times 28th December 2013 The interpretation is brisk and joined-up, with an orchestra in peak form – not least in the Andante, where the Gewandhaus’s golden strings and woodwinds are heard to advantage. All that’s missing is the last ounce of intensity. – 4 out of 5 stars Gramophone Magazine March 2014 the playing of Chailly’s Gewandhaus Orchestra is unarguably superb and it is fair to say that not even Abbado or Boulez reveal more in the way of instrumental substrata…Mahler’s rural interludes glisten in decidedly novel fashion, sounding as much like Berio as Bruckner…It’s a sensational package in its way |
