Music reviews of Lalo: Symphonie Espagnole; Bruch: Violin Concerto No. 1
Music Review: A luscious bit of boomer nostalgia
Rating: 5 Stars
Like the previous reviewer, I am reminded of a more innocent time whenever I come across the pairing of Ormandy and Stern. This is one of their best collaborations, now gorgeously remastered -- I doubt I've ever heard Strn's tone sound so natural and full. He's on fire in the Symphonie espagnole (did any work ever sound less Spansh?), and Ormandy is in high spirits. Columbia turned to him as their accompanist-in-chief, and it was one of his best roles.
The Bruch concerto is a more serious enterprise. Now that we have been flooded with showstopping virtuosos from the former Soviet Union, it's easy to forget a time in the sixties when Stern was more dominant in the public mind than Oistrakh. It's heartwarming to hear him in an involved, altogether absorbing performance. He digs into every phrase in the opening movement, fully the equal of Vengerov. After all, Stern's style was rooted in Russia (during a thaw in the Cold War he joked that a cultural exchange between the Soviet Union and America came down to "You sned us your violinists from Odessa and we'll send you our violinists from Odessa.")
The second movement of the Bruch is sweetly lyrical, the finale graced by effortless double stops and a sense of brio. Ormandy keeps up his end, and the Philadelphians are shown off in vintage Columbia Records stereo, with its wall-to-wall separation. In all, this is one of Sony's best commemorations of the two musicians and thoroughly enjoyable for anyone who was learning to love classical music back when.
