And a straightforward expression of the music’s inherent beauty. Tight tempos and a smooth flow, with phrasing that highlights the music’s three-dimensionality. With a performance philosophy centered on remarkably clear structural vision and assured orchestral control, this recording offers a fresh interpretation that stands apart from the overly artificial “Russian” style often heard in recent performances. His original interpretation possesses a distinctive sense of climax, successfully highlighting Tchaikovsky’s descriptive power and presenting Tchaikovsky’s music with a rich, full-bodied color.\nChristoph Poppen is a violinist and conductor born in Münster, Germany, in 1956. As a violinist, he has won prizes at numerous prestigious competitions. In 1978, he founded the Cherubini String Quartet. In 1981, he won the Grand Prix at the Evian International String Quartet Competition. In 1988, he became music director of the Detmold Chamber Orchestra.
