5.0 out of 5 stars Magical! Magical!, 18 Mar 2000
By meclb@aol.com (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Celibidache was often controversial, but on these discs you will hear a master at work. The recordings of these French Impressionist masterpieces suggest an artist painting the score before us, a world away from the often dust- covered canvas presented to us by countless other conductors. You will be lucky to find a La Valse that is as lazy and exciting as this one, or a Daphnis & Chloe Second Suite that is so passionate. On all the discs, speeds are spacious, but in no other performances will you hear the music between the notes so clearly. The textures are always ravishing, the dynamics perfectly judged: the difference between the most subtle pianissimos and most fearsome fortes are astonishly drawn. Woodwind are felicitous, strings are soaked in the mists of impressionism, whether they be Spanish or French. These recordings seduce the ears - and the sound, although stereo, has wonderful presence. This is a case of an orchestra following their conductor's wishes to a man, and the playing is never less than superb. An unforgettable set and an astonsihing achievement unlikely to be equalled.
