Acknowledged as the UK's foremost musical pioneers, with an extraordinary recording legacy, the Philharmonia leads the field for its quality of playing. Together with its relationships with the most sought-after artists, most importantly its Principal Conductor and Artistic Advisor Esa-Pekka Salonen, the Philharmonia Orchestra is at the heart of British musical life.
Esa-Pekka Salonen made his London conducting debut with the Philharmonia Orchestra in September 1983 and he has returned to conduct the Orchestra on a regular basis ever since.
| MAHLER, Gustav (1860-1911) | | | Symphony No.9 in D major | | | 1. | I. Andante comodo | 25:44 | | | 2. | II. Im Tempo eines gemächliches Ländlers - Etwas täppisch und sehr derb | 15:09 | | | 3. | III. Rondo-Burleske: Allegro assai - Sehr trotzig | 12:44 | | | 4. | IV. Adagio: Sehr langsam und noch zurückhaltend | 24:04 | | “In the two massive slow outer movements, he doesn’t wring out the final drops of emotion, but empathises with the love of life and the beauties of nature that paradoxically emerge from Mahler’s premonition of death. “
The Sunday Times
“His Boulezian ear for balance keeps all the textures phantasmagorically clear in the first and third movements … the final dying embers are a dream.”
BBC Music Magazine, August 2010
“… its radical and forward-looking qualities emerge with the clarity and vision of a conductor … whose expertise in contemporary music elucidates texture and orchestral detail”
International Record Review, July/August 2010
Esa-Pekka Salonen conducts the Philharmonia Orchestra in this live concert recording of Gustav Mahler's "Symphony No. 9 in D major." This post-Romantic work was the composer's last completed symphony, and it followed completion of the unnumbered vocal symphony, "Das Lied von der Erde." The Philharmonia delivers the symphony with its customary solid playing, and Salonen gives the reading a high level of intensity. This performance was recorded on March 22, 2009, in the Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, London.
