Music reviews of Camargo Guarnieri: Piano Concertos Nos. 1, 2 and 3
Music Review: Brazilian flair and style
Rating: 5 Stars
A release like this one fills a major gap in the recording catalogue of Brazilian art music. Camargo Guarnieri was one of the most important and influential Brazilian composers of the 20th century, and his concertos for piano and orchestra offer a complete panorama of his stylistic development. In these works, Guarnieri displays to perfection his skills in blending elements from traditional Brazilian music with techniques indebted to European art music, achieving a synthesis that is at once technically accomplished and musically captivating. It is hard to imagine performances that will do justice to these pieces as magnificently as the teaming of Brazilian pianist Max Barros with American conductor Thomas Conlin leading the Warsaw Philharmonic. The orchestra shows a welcome sensitivity to the lilt and sensuality of the Brazilian rhythms, while Mr. Conlin achieves a sophisticated balance between formal structure and expressive freedom. Max Barros' interpretation is a tour-de-force of virtuosity, elegance, beautiful phrasing, and intuitive response to the lyricism and finesse of Guarnieri's piano writing. He extracts from the piano a range of sonorities that makes one easily imagine these melodies being sung or performed on string instruments, so beautiful and supple are his phrases. In the more rhythmic sections, Mr. Barros displays the full range of his familiarity with the exciting and energetic rhythms of Brazilian traditional music, bringing a freshness and vitality to the concertos that will be difficult to equal, let alone surpass. One waits eagerly for the second volume in this groundbreaking project.
