Excellent surprise, this sum takes place among the rare successful Western integrals (Mehta-Los Angeles, Karajan 1976, Muti, Jurowski-LPO) of Tchaikovsky’s symphonies, the domineering Svetlanov (Canyon 1990, then Warner) having become difficult to access and the new Sladkovski integral not being imported. Järvi who started with a thunderclap, with a 5e black and fatal, had a little disappointed in the 4e, coupled with an excellent ” Little russian “(2e). All the rest of the box is new; a Pathetic troubled and urgent, also available as a separate CD and Symphonies nbone 1 and 3, currently only accessible through this box. The 3e Symphony is, with the Fifth, the culmination of Paavo Järvi and his Zurich residents: a thrilling reading that reflects the atmospheres close to the worlds of opera and ballet in this underestimated work. To the supplements are added Francesca da Rimini and two excerpts fromEugene Onegin. Recommended box.
