Subcollection: OrchestreBernard Sweer's music is candid in style. It is a combination of elements relating to 19th century Dutch folk-song and Wagner stylistic characteristics from the middel creatice period. Once the composer had found his own style, he kept to it; this was in about 1890, the time of this symphony, to my fatherland. He would not allow his work to be affected by the late-romantic and impressionistic influences. |

Subcollection: OrchestreNational Polish Symphony Orchestra conducted by Slawek Wroblewski (2 -5), Gabriel Chmura (1), and Zygmunt Rychert (6).
This CD commemorates the fact that this great unknown romantic master died one hundred years ago. The Polish conductor, teacher and composer Noskowski was a leading figure in the impressive Polish music scene around 1900, working alongside such people as Paderewski, Scharwenka, and Moszkowski. These works show that also as a composer, he could measure up to his contemporaries!
Morskie oko is not unfamiliar. From a very mysterious beginning the music rises to a most beautiful climax depicting the famous cliff in Poland -with this name. The symphony is traditional in style blending the big romantic tradition from Schumann, Brahms with a tinge of Polish folk music. The second movement is an experience beyond most. A truly romantic slow movement that will bring tears to all romantic eyes... |

Subcollection: OrchestreGouvy was more concerned with balance, moderation and good taste than in operatic glamour that would doubtless have brought him fame and fortune. But, as he came from a wealthy family, he never had to accept artistic compromise in order to survive, and was thus able to compose in the idiom that interested him most, even if it seems an unpopular one. Even the hard-to-please Hector Berlioz expressed with surprise “…that a composer of his importance should still be so little known in Paris…”
Born into a French family with its roots in Belgium, he was German by nationality and could not attend the Paris Conservatorie. He took private lessons and became a respected pianist, but far from the virtuosos in the music salons. The music he composed was far from fashion and might not have brought him acclaim in France, but it did earn him respect from his colleagues. |
