Mahler: Symphony No. 1; Blumine [Hybrid SACD]

Mahler: Symphony No. 1; Blumine [Hybrid SACD] (2007) more music like this

performed by Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, David Zinman (conductor)
composed by Gustav Mahler

Like many contemporary recordings of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 1 in D major, "Titan," this hybrid SACD from RCA includes a performance of the full symphony with the discarded movement "Blumine." It has become fashionable for conductors to insert this brief pastoral piece as a quiet interlude between the first and second movements, even though ...

In the face of recordings by Cortot, Hoffmann, Rubinstein, ...

performed by Birgit Remmert (contralto), Detlef Roth (bass), Ruth Ziesak (soprano), Steve Davislim (tenor), Schweizer Kammerchor (choir, chorus), Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, David Zinman (conductor)
composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

It's hard to get a measure on this recording from looking at the package. For one thing, there is little indication of who is performing (in this case, it's David Zinman leading the Tonalle Orchestra of Zurich with soprano Ruth Ziesak, contralto Birgit Remmert, tenor Steve Davislim, and bass Detlef Roth). For another, releasing it as part of RCA's ...

Beethoven: Symphonies No. 7 & 8 (2005) more music like this

performed by Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, David Zinman (conductor)
composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

Of course you've got to hear them. These are performances of the first new editions of Beethoven's Seventh and Eighth symphonies in more than a century. With immense rigor and enormous love, Jonathan del Mar has given musicians and music lovers an edition of the core works of the symphonic repertoire that is shockingly strange and strangely ...

Robert Schumann: Symphonies Nos. 1-4

Robert Schumann: Symphonies Nos. 1-4 more music like this

performed by Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, David Zinman (conductor)
composed by Robert Schumann

There are four types of Schumann conductors. There are those terrible Schumann conductors who make Schumann sound like he had no idea how to write a symphony and less than no idea how to orchestrate. Then there are those mediocre Schumann conductors who make Schumann sound like he had some idea what he was doing but still very little idea of how ...

Beethoven: Complete Overtures

Beethoven: Complete Overtures (2005) more music like this

performed by Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, David Zinman (conductor)
composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

Of course this is what Beethoven is supposed to sound like. All the warmth, the breadth, the depth, the height, the solemnity, the hilarity, the agony, and, of course, the wild-eyed ecstasy that are in Beethoven in these performances of his complete Overtures by David Zinman leading the Tonhalle Orchestre Zurich. As Zinman proved in his cycle of ...

Beethoven: Missa Solemnis

Beethoven: Missa Solemnis (2005) more music like this

performed by Anna Larsson (alto), Franz-Josef Selig (bass), Luba Orgonasova (soprano), Primoz Novsak (violin), Rainer Trost (tenor), Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, David Zinman (conductor)
composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

Great as it is -- and, let's face it, it's the greatest symphony ever written -- the Ninth Symphony isn't Beethoven's greatest choral-orchestral work. His greatest choral-orchestral work, as Beethoven was the first to point out, was the Missa Solemnis. After all, the Ninth may be great through and through, but it's only choral-orchestral in the ...

Of course you have to hear it. What choice do you have? This is the first recording of the first new edition of Beethoven's first two symphonies by a world-class conductor, how could you not want to hear what they sound like? How do they sound? Terrific, tremendous, really: these are new editions that make a difference. Naturally, the basic ...

performed by Jeffrey Segal (trumpet), Michael Bertoncello (trombone), Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, David Zinman (conductor)
composed by Ferdinand David, Franz Joseph Haydn, Georg Christoph Wagenseil, Johann Nepomuk Hummel

In the LP era, Haydn's Trumpet Concerto in E flat and the Trumpet Concerto in E major of Johann Nepomuk Hummel could fill out a single album as a mutually informative and enjoyable pair. The pesky extra half hour available on a CD presents a problem, for Classical-era works for trumpet and orchestra are sparse. Various solutions have been tried, ...

These recordings by David Zinman and the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich are more than superlative modern performances of Beethoven's Third and Fourth symphonies; these are model demonstrations of new editions of Beethoven's Third and Fourth symphonies. Either one would have been enough: after decades of overweight, over-muscled, and overwrought ...

composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Bright, stylish, and lovely, Pamela Frank's recordings of Mozart's five Violin Concertos with David Zinman conducting the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra are surely among the best since Arthur Grumiaux's classic recordings with Colin Davis and the London Symphony of half a century ago. Frank's tone is lean but supple, her intonation is warm but pure, ...

composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

For a change of pace, how about a great recording of Beethoven's C minor Piano Concerto? Instead of the standard rehash of Beethoven's C minor Concerto, how about a recording of thrilling virtuosity, exciting drama, exquisite lyricism, and, above all, relentless drive? Is it even possible? Despite fine recordings of the work over the years -- one ...
