Weinberg - Concertos (Gothenburg SO, Thord Svedlund)

Recorded 2005 | Released 2008

The ongoing series of Weinberg orchestral music on Chandos [is one] of the finest things happening on CD at the moment, and this fabulous collection of four Weinberg concertos – each work plugging a serious gap in the recorded repertoire – is one of the most sheerly exciting discs to come my way in a long time… A release of the first importance, then.

Gramophone

Appreciation of the Polish-born Mieczyspaw Weinberg has increased markedly over recent years. This collection of four concertos covers a fair proportion of the composer's maturity. The Cello Fantasia (1953) is a deftly through-composed design recalling the Myaskovsky Concerto in a melodic directness that yet conceals considerable expressive depths. The flute concertos are both lighter in content though not necessarily in manner: No 1 (1961) places its ruminative passacaglia between movements whose effervescence is often tempered by the ambivalent strains of klezmer, while No 2 (1987) places a brooding Largo between an Allegro that elides, Nielsen-like, between its frequently conflicting ideas and a finale whose valedictory allusions to the music of others are fitting in the context of one of Weinberg's last works.

Yet it is the Clarinet Concerto (1970) that is the real discovery here. On a substantial scale, it allows the soloist subtle dominance against a string orchestra that, in the first movement, evinces a sparseness often redolent of (though not indebted to) late Shostakovich and which, in the Andante, blends austerity with poetry to touching effect – before a finale whose dancing gait prevails in the face of more disruptive elements.

The soloists are finely attuned to their respective concertos, and Thord Svedlund secures an incisive response from his Gothenburg forces. Excellent sound and a welcome addition to the Weinberg discography.
