Description:
Singing of quite extraordinary freedom. Schubert from René Jacobs and the B'Rock Orchestra. Volume 2 brings Symphonies Nos. 2 and 3. Hybrid SACD. The second instalment in René Jacobs and the B'Rock Orchestra's complete cycle of the Schubert symphonies, following the widely praised coupling of Symphonies Nos. 1 and 6 (PTC 5186707), and this time pairing Nos. 2 and 3. Jacobs, a musician of vast experience, acute ears and deep learning, has clearly waited for the right moment to set these works down. The B'Rock Orchestra was founded in 2005 in Ghent, Belgium's third city, and plays on period instruments. It has built its reputation through collaborations with René Jacobs, Ivor Bolton and Alexander Melnikov, among others. Several Japanese players are among its members, and its long-awaited Japanese debut in September 2019 attracted considerable attention. Under Jacobs's baton the orchestra's endlessly shifting colours sing with complete freedom, in performances that are vivid and full of character. Completed a year and five months after the First Symphony, the Second is more assured than its predecessor in formal terms, and far more recognisably Schubertian. The Third dates from the same year, 1815, during which Schubert also produced five operas, two piano sonatas and two masses. The Third Symphony shows unmistakably the hand of a born song composer. Jacobs — a singer as well as a conductor, and above all a musician — captures the buoyant world of the teenage Schubert to perfection. Recorded by PENTATONE's distinguished engineering team, including Erdo Groot, using DSD recording technology, the disc offers superb multi-channel sound of the highest quality. "Schubert was the first of my favourite composers whose music I was given the chance to sing in concert as a child. In time I became a member of the boys' choir at the cathedral in my home city of Ghent, singing as a boy soprano soloist. In those days I listened to Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's recordings of Schubert's songs, and fell ever more deeply under Schubert's spell. I began my career as a countertenor, and as a singer and later as a conductor I have performed the music of many composers — but as a conductor I have now returned to Schubert, the composer I revere above all others." (René Jacobs) King International
