Music reviews of Rimsky-Korsakov: Sherherazade; Russian Easter Overture; Capriccio espagnol

Music Review: Energy held in check
Rating: 5 Stars

Certain works lend themselves to the specialty of the conductor and orchestra, and of these meetings of fortune and talent, there is no better match than Scheherazade by Rimsky-Korsakov with Eugene Ormandy conducting the legendary Philadephia Orchestra. In Ormandy's portfolio of strengths is an astonishingly lively bass section. The double bass is a massive instrument that seems to need to gather strength before it can be heard. Not Ormandy's, the string bass positively snap to life with their rich, warm sound -- the counterpoint, in fact, is so quick yet expansive that it feels as if there is this incredible beheamoth held in check by a musical master. Another strength of Ormandy is his exquisite sense of a time signature. This recoding never loses pace; no matter how busy or romantic or dramatic or profound, every instrument is absolutely on beat. Rimsky-Korsakov's compositions turn upon expert timing, the intersection of one line building as another fades, the periodic insertion of strategic silence, the transitions of melody of and counterpoint throughout the orchestra. Ormandy fulfills all these challenges to qive listeners the quintesential Scheherazade.
