Elgar: Cello Concerto; "Enigma" VariationsG. Concerto for Cello and Orchestra, Op. 85. Allegro ma non troppo. Although cast in four main sections, in contrast to the three movement of the earlier Violin Concerto, the Cello Concerto is a leaner and more concise score. Here, Elgar, self-taught but wise in orchestral experience, successfully projects the solo cello line in clear relief against an orchestral background of unusual refinement and stripped of all inessentials. A nine page essay in English by Ph...

Music From Program Notes: June 2012

Schubert: Rosamunde; Die Zauberharfe Overture; Ständchen. There was no time to write a separate overture, so instead Schubert borrowed one from his opera "Alfonso and Estrelle." Later the 1820 overture to his opera "The Magic Harp" was substituted, and that is the one we know today as the "Rosamunde" overture. On track 1 is much less interesting, and Lehmann's performance of it is a tad hard-boiled. Hopefully DG will re-issue more of Lehmann's best recordings: the two Mendelssohn Piano Concertos with Hel...

RAVEL: PIANO CONCERTO IN G MAJOR. I Allegramente. The gossamer lightness of the opening, with its sparky little tune for piccolo solo against shimmering bitonality arpeggios for the piano, soft string tremolos, pizzicatos, and a scarcely audible roll of the side drum, is an effect to remember. Hardly has the piccolo introduced the melody when it is taken up by a glittering trumpet solo, and it returns again to cap the climax of the brilliant first movement. Overture, The Roman Carnival, Opus 9. Berlioz&#...
