BPO/Minasi - Mozart, 27 October 2023
[…] that of his Viennese successor, but not always in the same ways. What, in the wrong hands, can sound fussy was here a delight. The sheer profusion of melodic ideas was well served here in a lively and gracious performance, never driven hard. Solo playing, not only from the two violinists Noah Bendix-Bagley and Thomas Timm, but from other members of the BPO, but also oboist Albrecht Mayer (who stood with them), and cellist Ludwig Quant (who doubtless would have done, had he not been a cellist!) was beyond reproach, dialogue and conversation flowing in all directions. Tone was rich but never indulgent, like the finest Egyptian cotton The infectious spring in the step – to mix my metaphors – imparted to the first movement was Minasi’s work and helped propel the music with spirit. Not for nothing is it marked ‘Allegro spiritoso’. ‘Andantino grazioso’, in character as much as […]

Mendelssohn: The Symphonies - Antonello Manacorda
Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) Symphony No. 1 in C minor op. 11 Synphony No. 4 in Amajor op. 90 "Italian" Kammerakademie Potsdam Antonello Manacorda Sony 2016 Pour commencer, il est sûrement nécessaire de présenter l'orchestre, né vers 2000, qui fait office d'orchestre du Land de Brandebourg. C'est une formation dont les effectifs sont ceux de type Mozart, ce qui donne donc un net allègement par rapport aux grandes formations symphoniques. Elle a bénéficié de la direction d'Andrea Marcon puis de Michaël Sanderling et maintenant Antonello Manacorda. Quant au chef, c'est un violoniste italien qui s'est illustré comme 1er violon du Mahler Chamber Orchestre, donc il peut être considéré comme un disciple d'Abbado (dont l'intgrale Mendelssohn est une référence). Il s'est déjà ilustré avec cet orcheste dans une très belle intégrale Schubert. Nous avons donc ici les 5 symphonies de Mendelssohn mais aucune ouverture. La […]
