About

This recording features one of today’s most sought-after conductors, Vladimir Jurowski, who was appointed Principal Conductor of the London Philharmonic Orchestra in 2007, with many of his recordings on the LPO Label being chosen for special mentions by BBC Music Magazine and Gramophone Magazine.

Igor Stravinsky was a master of evocative composition, and these three works performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra and Vladimir Jurowski showcase his incredible versatility of style, and feature one of his most colourful and wide-ranging scores, Petrushka. The antics of a puppet endowed with life are the central focus of this large-scale ballet.

Stravinsky’s original version of Symphonies of Wind Instruments composed in 1920 is heard alongside his original Petrushka, a piece he descibed as ‘an austere ritual which is unfolded in terms of short litanies between different groups of homogeneous instruments’. Classical elegance and restraint are brought into focus in the first new recording of Orpheus since 2009.

This release marks the first all-Stravinsky release on the LPO Label since it was established in 2005. It is also significant in being Vladimir Jurowski’s first ever recording of these three works.

This recording is taken from live concert performances at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall on Saturday 6 December 2014 and Saturday 21 March 2015.

Reviews

December 2016

Both works are graced with strongly characterised playing under Jurowski’s precise direction.

October 2016

Everything is clearly heard and all kinds of details emerge that bring home the originality of the score more than I ever expected...Jurowski’s meticulous attention to rhythmic precision is notable and does not detract from his overall characterization of the score.

4th September 2016

Like Pierre Boulez, Jurowski uses the original scores of Petrushka and the wind symphonies, not the much later revisions.

25th August 2016

what comes across brilliantly on this new Stravinsky disc...is how focused and un-faffy he and the orchestra sound together by now...Petrushka (the original 1911 version) is short on crazed energy and urban hubbub, but instead we get chamber-like clarity and a really crisp sense of the score’s architecture.

Classical Music October 2016

Hugely detailed and full of solo contributions of the highest calibre
