I wonder if that includes all of his DG ones with that orchestra. I can see one there.

#A-Schubert-A-Day Day 114 ‘Die Laube’, D214, from 17 June 1815. The poem speaks in a calm, nostalgic tone, often addressing the arbor as a witness to love and secret emotions, blending tenderness with a quiet ache. www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dw.asp?dc=W2...

#A-Schubert-A-Day Day 113 ‘Der Traum’, D213 from 17 June 1815. idealised love, transience, nostalgia, and the emotional power of memory. www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dw.asp?dc=W2...

It’s a biggie!

#A-Schubert-A-Day Day 112 ‘Die Nonne’, D208 from 16 June 1815. The mood shifts a lot here. Fascinating! Graham Johnson’s discussion is very amusing! www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dw.asp?dc=W2...

Agreed. That’s true for me. I don’t feel quite the same about K Petrenko, though!

I haven’t heard it yet, though Dave Hurwitz says it’s a very fine performance! Odd pairing, yes.

But he has roundly praised quite a few other Wilson recordings, so I am not sure he had predefined this one. I don’t think the new recording rivals past favourites.

#A-Schubert-A-Day Day 111 ‘Adelwold und Emma’, D211, from 5 - 11 June 1815. Half an hour of music from Schubert is always going to bring drama and contrast. This is a seriously impressive piece. www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dw.asp?dc=W2...

He’d definitely listened to it; he gave lots of specific examples. I see his points, but just don’t hear what he’s hearing to the same degree. I do think it could have had even more bite and power.

#A-Schubert-A-Day Day 110 ‘Die Liebe. Clärchens Lied’, D210 from 3 June 1815. Inward sadness? Resignation? Kind of despairing in a soft kind of way. www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dw.asp?dc=W2...

Haha

I liked it, but I still prefer the impact of Previn and possibly Litton, too.
November 23, 2025 at 4:12 PM
Definitely listen to it. Wonderful work.

It’s gorgeously recorded in a big acoustic, too. Works really, really well.

…actually becoming derivative. It certainly doesn’t sound like the mature versions of either composer, but has some of their early elegance and vivid orchestral colouring. It’s not a work I am going to rush back to often, but I enjoyed the conviction of Järvi’s performance.

Järvi recorded an impressive series of American works while in Detroit, one of which was George Chadwick’s lyrical, somewhat heroic and warmly-conceived Symphony No.2. To my ears this fits somewhere in between Dvořák and Rimsky-Korsakov’s First and Third Symphonies without…

Will listen to the Rogé later! Thank you.
