¡Beethoven: Symphony No. 9 - Human Misery, Human Love
¡Kent Nagano
Description
[Machine Translation] Kent Nagano and the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, under his musical direction, finally reach No. 9, "Chorus," in the fourth installment of their Beethoven: The Complete Symphonies project. The live recording was made at the inauguration of the Maison Saint-Phonique de Montreal, the new home of the Symphonieorchester de Montreal, at its new concert hall in Montreal in September 2011. In addition to the Montreal Symphony Chorus, the Tafelmusik Chamber Choir, renowned for its baroque performances, is used for the chorus, adding a finer level of expression. The title of the original album is "The Sorrow of Mankind and Human Love. The addition of Yann Martel's reading of "Where have all my revolutionary friends gone?" is a concept that is typical of Kent, who is keenly aware of the 21st century implications of Beethoven's music, which was written 200 years ago.
