Product Review : Beethoven: Symphony No. 9
| 38 of 39 people found the following review helpful  A passionate recording with the unique Toscanini stamp, By "hcollin" (Guayaquil, Ecuador) - See all my reviews This review is from: Beethoven: Symphony No. 9 "Choral" (Audio CD) Doubtless, the ninth remains one of the best musical pieces of all time and, alas, one of the least performed in public. Indeed, such live performances were, and still are, so infrequent that George Bernard Shaw deemed them "extraordinary events separated by years". It may be that it is difficult and technically demanding (but then all Beethoven music is), but it is most likely because it's so passionate and emotionally demanding. You must have abundant personal and professional attributes to conduct a magnun opus the size of Choral Symphony and Arturo Toscanini has them both at his best in this 1952 recording. Although he was 85 years old at that time, he vigorously projects beauty, warmth and youth aplenty. It is a magnificent recording, one you cannot listen to and feel the same afterwards. 31 of 31 people found the following review helpful A brilliant Beethoven's ninth, By This review is from: Beethoven: Symphony No. 9 "Choral" (Audio CD) Arturo Toscanini (1867-1957) spent much of his conducting career trying to give a "definitive" performance of Beethoven's ninth symphony. He conducted the symphony numerous times; it wasn't until 1952 that he was sufficiently satisfied with a recording of this major work to authorize a commercial release.Toscanini had hated to record during the days of 78-rpm discs. Each 12-inch record side played a little under five minutes, so it was necessary for the conductor and musicians to stop periodically while the master was changed. Only in the United Kingdom, where Toscanini made recordings with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, did a record producer (Fred Gaisberg) come up with a system using two recording machines, so that Toscanini and the musicians did not have to stop. Toscanini was very happy when RCA Victor began using magnetic sound film to record his sessions with the NBC Symphony. Then, in 1948, RCA switched to magnetic tape. With both processes, continuous...

MacDonald "Russ" (Richmond Hill, GA (near Savannah)) - See all my reviews This review is from: Beethoven: Symphony No. 9 "Choral" (Audio CD) This recording of Beethoven's 9th Symphony brings us Toscanini at the pinnacle of his career and the most mature stage of his life. It is also the only recording he ever made of this piece, even though he conducted it numerous times and was well known for it. While the recording limitations of 1952 are noticeable, the mood and impact of the piece are not affected at all.The complex instrumental passages are clear and crisp, interpretted by a true master, leading us ever onward to the climax of the 4th movement where the piece explodes with the typical energy of the Robert Shaw Chorale. The lyrics are clear and filled with breathtaking dynamic variations, accurately depicting the boundless joy for which the piece was named. This recording of Beethoven's 9th is a 'Gold Standard' to which all other conductors strive. No collection of great works would be complete without it. |
