Reviews

July 2013

At every stage in this performance, the listener is compelled to reappraise a familiar masterpiece. All in all, this is a stunning interpretation with constantly rewarding orchestral playing, as well as excellent recorded sound.

July 2013

it finds Andris Nelsons drawing the most sumptuously refined, pungently characterful and bracingly alert response from the Bavarian RSO. His is a no-holds-barred conception of powerful expressive scope, intrepid incident and obvious affection...A very strong recommendation.

6th August 2013

it feels as if the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra has established a special rapport with Nelsons. Marshalling his sections with conspicuous assurance Nelsons leads a performance of innate energy and vibrancy. It feels a notch or two above the routine standard of playing that [the New World] often produces.

4th April 2013

Both performances convey a great deal of what is so special about Nelsons as an interpreter, and of the excitement he can generate on the podium.
It's quite something to bring such freshness to the New World Symphony, whether it's in the sense of wonder with which he phrases the first movement's second subject, or the edge-of-seat drama he brings to the finale

29th March 2013

The Nelsons fire and lustre are on full display in the live recordings on this Dvorák disc with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, a top-class band with a glow of its own...Yet it takes more than immaculate playing to bring a chestnut to life. Here there’s such freshness in Nelsons’ phrasings, such lyrical pungency and dramatic attack, that the piece became blissfully young: a new world indeed.
