“Dazzling orchestral colors,” is one one way to describe the music of Ottorino Respighi. “Belkis, Queen of Sheba” was conceived as an evening-long ballet with singing whose lavishness has kept it from view since its La Scala premiere. This is only the second recording of a suite prepared by the composer ” for the first time with the tenor solo (sung by Chad Shelton), and with the movements in the correct order. The music’s oriental perfumes and barbaric splendor guarantee the enthusiasm of anyone who hears it. “Dance of the Gnomes” is a little-known but characteristically dramatic and colorful (some might say “lurid”) tone poem. “Prof.” Johnson’s stunning HDCD® sonics make Respighi’s greatest hit “The Pines of Rome” (with extra brasses and organ!) a dazzling conclusion to this unusual, inventive program.
Reviews
Grammy Nominated: Best Engineered Album, Classical – Keith O. Johnson, Engineer “Oue plays each piece to the hilt; I cannot imagine more precise, more lovingly conducted performances. As for the recording, I’m running out of superlatives …it is brilliant and weighty, with tremendous undistorted dynamics.” – Peter Aczel, The Audio Critic
2005年に日本人として始めてバイロイト音楽祭の指揮台に立った大植英次が2001年に録音したレスピーギ作品集。レスピーギ最後のバレエ「シバの女王ベルキス」は古代的異国情緒をたたえるスケールの大きな作品。そして大名曲「ローマの松」をメリハリの利いた壮大な迫力でレスピーギの華麗なるオーケストレーションを表現しています。
