Review

ARTISTIC QUALITY: 10 / SOUND QUALITY: 10

This 5-disc box collects for the first time CPO’s Cannes Classical Award-winning series of Milhaud’s complete symphonies featuring the Basel Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Alun Francis. Only in today’s blasé market would it be possible for this set to receive so little attention and be received with such general critical indifference. What other major French composer this century completed 12 fascinating, first rate symphonies? If this isn’t a tremendous musical achievement, then what is? Leaving aside, for a moment, the general excellence of the performances themselves, it’s worth exploring why Milhaud’s symphonic achievement has garnered such neglect. Several reasons come to mind.

Milhaud’s symphonies are really difficult to play well. Not only does his polytonal style always sound “wrong” to the players (a genuine clash of clearly defined keys is much more disconcerting in many respects than heavily chromatic or atonal music), but he also loves to oppose very high and very low sounds with nothing in the middle, as in the first movement of his Eighth Symphony. His mature music also is heavily polyphonic (a natural result of its harmonic style), and as a consequence often sounds unrelentingly busy. It is, therefore, difficult to listen to as well–it requires attention and doesn’t work at all as background or ambient music. Folks expecting the popular jazz or Latin influences of such pieces as The Creation of the World or Le Boeuf sur le Toit are in for a big surprise. Though hardly Germanic in a formal sense, these are indeed real symphonies: bold, serious pieces that engage the listener at many different levels.

Finally, Milhaud was a very prolific composer, reaching Op. 441 when he died, and this is always considered to be a liability given our persistently Romantic notion that quality and quantity are somehow mutually exclusive, and that each new work must be a unique masterpiece created from the ground up, as with Mahler’s symphonies, for example, or Wagner’s operas. This is total nonsense. In fact, the 20th century was an exceptionally fertile period full of composers who achieved a consistent musical style and created a vast number of engaging works while remaining comfortably within that style. Stravinsky, Shostakovich, Hindemith, Martinu, Villa Lobos, Cowell, Hovhaness, and even Richard Strauss are just a few of the great names who, along with Milhaud, fit this description to a greater or lesser degree. There’s nothing unusual about a large body of great work at all. Bach and Handel did it, and so did Haydn and Mozart.

The argument that the achievement of the great masters of the past was only possible in “the good old days” but not today, won’t survive 10 seconds of careful listening. No one composed more junk than Mozart, and you’d be hard pressed to find something totally lacking in interest in Milhaud, Stravinsky, or Martinu. Milhaud’s symphonies, within their stylistic parameters, show at least the same range of expression as do, for example, the symphonies of Bruckner or Sibelius. The elements of his style: the pastoral moods, raucous marches, solemn dirges, dance rhythms, strident, soloistic scoring favoring the wind section over the strings–all of these find expression in different ways in each work.

It’s very unlikely that these pieces will find any more persuasive advocates than Francis and his Swiss orchestra–certainly not Michel Plasson and his muddily recorded and rhythmically slack Toulouse orchestra on Deutsche Grammophon. While you may not want to get the whole box at one throw (despite the very reasonable discounted price), if you care about French music or the 20th century symphony (and there’s a lot of evidence that the 20th century was a golden age of the symphony, much more productive than the 19th), then you must hear this music, plain and simple.

Darius Milhaud (4 September 1892 – 22 June 1974) was a French composer, conductor and teacher. He was a member of Les Six and one of the most prolific composers of the 20th century; his opus list ended at 443. Milhaud composed for a wide range of genres. His compositions are influenced by jazz and make use of polytonality. His most popular works include Le bœuf sur le toitLa création du mondeScaramouche, and Saudades do Brasil. Milhaud taught at Mills College and the Paris Conservatoire. The jazz pianist Dave Brubeck was one of Milhaud's most famous students, along with popular songwriter Burt Bacharach.

Ottmar Elliger II - Death of Cleopatra
Obra d'Ottomar Elliger II (1666-1735), pintor alemany (1)


- Recordatori de Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow -
En el dia de la celebració del seu 355è aniversari de naixement



Parlem de Pintura...

Ottomar Elliger II (Hamburg, 1666 - Amsterdam, 1735) va ser un pintor alemany. Fill del pintor Ottomar Elliger, es va formar inicialment amb el seu pare abans de traslladar-se a Amsterdam, ciutat on va estudiar amb Michiel van Musscher i posteriorment amb Gerard de Lairesse. Finalitzada la seva formació, va començar la seva carrera com a pintor de temàtica històrica en un estil proper al del seu mestre De Lairesse. Més tard, va entrar a treballar al servei de l'elector de Mayence per a qui va realitzar les obres "La mort d'Alexander" i "El matrimoni de Peleus i Thetis", considerades les seves millors produccions. Els seus fills Anthony Elliger i Ottomar Elliger III (c.1703-1735) també van ser pintors. Ottomar Elliger II va morir a Amsterdam el 1735.



Parlem de Música...

Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow [Zachau] (Leipzig, bap. 14 de novembre de 1663 - Halle, 7 d'agost de 1712) va ser un organista i compositor alemany. El seu avi i el seu pare van ser membres d'una Stadtpfeifer de Leipzig per la qual cosa es creu va rebre una primera formació del seu pare. Més tard, va estudiar en una de les Lateinschulen de Leipzig en un temps en què també es creu va poder rebre formació de Gerhard Preisensin (fl.1663-1672), organista de la Thomaskirche. Juntament amb la seva família, es va traslladar a Eilenburg, on va entrar a la Nikolaischule. També allà va rebre formació de Johann Schelle, kantor en aquell temps a la ciutat, i de Johann Hildebrand. El 11 d'agost de 1684 va ser nomenat organista de la Marienkirche de la Halle, en un càrrec que va preservar la resta de la seva vida. Va ser allà on va escriure la majoria de les seves obres, formades principalment per cantates en llengua vernacle i obres per a orgue. També a la Halle va treballar com a professor sent recordat especialment pel seu alumne Händel tot i que van destacar altres músics eminents com Gottfried Kirchhoff, J.G. Krieger i J.G. Ziegler. Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow, considerat un dels precursors de les fugues corals per a orgue, va morir a la Halle l'agost de 1712.
