Following his Grammy-nominated recording of “Bartók: Concerto for Orchestra” (PTC-5187027) and and “Bartók: Bluebeard’s Castle” (PTC-5187225), this third album on the PENTATONE label features “The Bells \u0026amp; Symphonic Dances”—two late masterpieces by Rachmaninoff that both incorporate the “Day of Wrath” motif he continued to reference throughout his life! This is an overwhelmingly brilliant performance with the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra, with whom he has deepened his close relationship following the extension of his contract as principal conductor.\nIn “The Bells,” where one can enjoy the interplay of the brilliantly surging chorus and the richly colored orchestration, Kanelakis paints a truly captivating journey—from youthful sparkle and lyrical warmth to the ominous tolling of bells, intense drama, and finally, tranquility. The diverse expressions of the soloists and the clear, dazzling brilliance of the chorus are also wonderful, bringing the music to life even further.\nRachmaninoff’s “Symphonic Dances,” his final symphonic work, is a blend of truly symphonic elements and rhythmic, earthy dance music. The performance, which maintains a sense of solid structure while unleashing a folk-inspired drive and naturally embracing emotions such as nostalgia and introspection, is a testament to Kanelakis’s exceptional sense of balance. What a sense of satisfaction the bold and exhilarating finale brings!\nPENTATONE\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PentaTone Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52699435008289,"sku":"8717306265232","price":3141.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/8717306265232.jpg?v=1779022623","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/8717306265232","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
