Thank you forsupporting our libraries and have a great weekend. Nielsen's Fourth Symphony is one of the most vital and exciting pieces of music composed this century. The finale, in which two sets of timpani battle from opposite sides of the stage (or your speakers), ought to lift you out of your seat, but most conductors wimp out on the piece and make it sound way too timid. Alexander Gibson encourages his drummers to really slam away, and Chandos captures the duel in spectacularly vivid sound. For this and other reasons-- Gibson's perfect sense of the proper tempo in particular--this is the best performance of the Inextinguishable available at the moment. The couplings are all very well-done, and appropriate. --David Hurwitz Please note all discs are checked prior to shipping for quality control. All proceeds benefit the Libraries of Pima County.
