One for Tintner fans

Posted by: Todd A on 03 October 2002

Looks like Naxos will be issuing a set of live performances led by Georg Tintner in repertoire other than Bruckner. Below is the list of works in the 10 disc tribute. I may have to investigate. (I'm not sure whether it's one big set or ten separate discs.)


Live performances with the Symphony Nova Scotia:

CD1 Mozart: Idomeneo Overture, Symphonies Nos. 34 and 41.

CD2 Mozart: Symphonies Nos. 31, 35 and 40

CD3 Haydn: Symphonies Nos. 103 and 104

CD4 Beethoven/Schumann: Symphonies 4 (Beethoven) and 2 (Schumann)

CD5 Beethoven/Sibelius: Symphonies 3 (Beethoven) and 7 (Sibelius)

CD6 Schubert: Symphonies Nos. 8 and 9

CD7 Brahms: Symphony No. 3, Serenade No. 2


Live Performances with the National Youth Orchestra of Canada:

CD8: Strauss/Mahler: Don Juan (Strauss), Symphony No. 1 (Mahler)

CD9: Strauss/Mahler/Schoenberg: Symphony No. 10 Adagio (Mahler), Till Eulenspiegel (Strauss), Transfigured Night (Schoenberg)

The 10th CD, a CBC Records production now discontinued from their catalogue, will be re-released by Naxos. It features Tintner/Symphony Nova Scotia performing various short pieces by Delius as well as the Violin Concerto with soloist Philippe Djokic.
