5.0 out of 5 stars Deeply Moving Performance!, 11 Feb 2008
By Scriabinmahler (Cambridge UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   

Temirkanov chooses dangerously slow tempo for the outer movements (1st movement 20:29/the last 12:01)and probably he is the only conductor who succeeds in this unusually slow pace, while Bernstein and Giulini make complete mess of the whole symphony (Both DG). He introduces the beautiful second theme very slowly with amazing tenderness, but never lets it distort the whole picture of the movement. When the theme returns again, after the explosive outburst, it is most beautifully sung in impressive grandeur. The last movement is a bit too slow, but again the conductor manages to hold slow sections and fast sections seamlessly and achives profoundly elegiac mood. The inner two movements are also very good.

If you are after different interpretation of Pathetique played slowly to relish the beautiful melodies without losing intensity and power, this is most recommendable along side Giulini's EMI version which is very similar in approach.
