3.0 out of 5 stars Empty Calories, 21 Nov 2007

By	J Scott Morrison (Middlebury VT, USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

My opinion of Ferdinand Ries's music is generally favorable, but I have to say that the music on this disc is not much to my liking, although it is played very well by Christopher Hinterluber, piano, accompanied by the G�vle Symphony under Uwe Grodd. This is because this music seems to be intended more as a presentation of the pianist's virtuosity than as a cogent musical argument. This is particularly true of the first two pieces presented here, the 'Swedish National Airs with Variations' and the 'Introduction and Polonaise.' These remind me somewhat of the mindless productions of such piano virtuosos of the time such as Sigismund Thalberg.

The concerto is somewhat better, particularly in the lovely middle movement, which actually reminds me a bit of Chopin's first concerto. Mostly, though, the concerto's thematic material is nondescript and its working out prosaic. The same is true for the orchestration. I cannot quite overcome my feeling that this is inferior Hummel.

My suggestion is that if you like the music of Thalberg or Pixis, or love to hear pianistic fireworks with roulades of arpeggios and scalework without having to be much concerned with form or inventive harmony, this might be for you. Otherwise, my advice would be to avoid it.

Scott Morrison
