The partnership of
Edward Gardner
and the
Bergen Philharmonic
has produced strong results in recordings of music from Scandinavia and beyond, with superb engineering from the Grieghalle in Bergen and a clean string sound that can stand with any in Europe. Those virtues are apparent on this release of music by
Carl Nielsen
, but there is a bonus: violinist
James Ehnes
turns in a rigorous performance of
Nielsen
's
Violin Concerto, Op. 33
, that is absolutely delightful. The
Violin Concerto
was written just a few years before the
Symphony No. 4, Op. 29 ("Inextinguishable")
, but it is a very different kind of work, closer to
's light-spirited theater music than to the symphony, but still with full-scale structural contrasts between violin and orchestra.
Ehnes
brings pinpoint accuracy and crackling humor to the work; listeners can sample the final rondo for an idea. The
Symphony No. 4
is also very strong, with somewhat slow tempos opening up a lot of carefully traced detail but a strong pulse from
Gardner
holding everything together. A wonderful
release. ~ James Manheim
