Title: Brahms: Symphonies 1 & 3
Artist: Brahms / Van Beinum, Eduard
Label: Eloquence Australia
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 028948254996
Genre: Classical Artists
Eduard van Beinum made three recordings of Brahms's First Symphony, all with the Concertgebouw Orchestra of which he had become principal conductor after World War II. This newly remastered Eloquence album presents his second thoughts on the symphony, as it were, from September 1951. Cut from the same cloth as his Beethoven symphonies, Van Beinum's interpretation is notable for it's dignified, classical approach. There are two Van Beinum studio accounts of the Third Symphony: dating from 1946, this is the first of them, made by Decca in the conductor's first sessions with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, just two months after his impromptu concert debut with them: substituting at the last minute for Albert Coates, Van Beinum happened to be on business in London, but he did not have his tails with him and conducted the concert dressed in a brown suit. In the hands of Van Beinum, the Third is treated not as an emotional roller-coaster, but as a powerful and finely crafted statement of Brahms's respect for the composers who preceded him, not least Robert Schumann: in the symphony's first movement, Brahms pays poignant tribute to the memory of the man who had nurtured his career at it's outset by quoting from the latter's 'Rhenish' Third Symphony. Van Beinum expressed approval of the LPO's autonomy of organization and spirit: 'this means that the members of the orchestra will, so to speak, be rapping each other over the knuckles if necessary. They feel responsible, which is very important'. The respect was evidently mutual, because the conductor was soon invited back for regular concerts, and indeed Decca recordings, and in 1949 he became the LPO's chief conductor. The technical discipline and idiomatic flow of this Brahms Third pays it's own testimony to the quickly achieved rapport between conductor and orchestra, later recalled by a former LPO violist: 'Firstly, he won the full trust and cooperation of the players. This he did through his musical authority and his human understanding. To him, the musicians he worked with were not anonymous employees of a musical organization, but artists who more or less shared his own tastes and standards'.
