Neeme Jaarvi Highlights From A 30 Year Recording Career

Jarvi Neeme Various

Catalogue # CHAN24144

\n

This year, we celebrate the thirty-year conducting career of\nNeeme Järvi with Chandos Records, as well as the conductor’s own\nseventy-fifth birthday.

\n

We mark the occasion with this two-disc set of highlights,\nfeaturing a varied selection of concert hall rarities and core\nclassics, along with some popular showpieces and examples of\nJärvi’s championing of Estonian and American music.

\n

In the course of his conducting career, Järvi has amassed a\ndistinguished discography of more than 440 recordings, well over\n150 of them for Chandos.

\n

Järvi has a rare ability to galvanise an orchestra into giving\nan interpretation of exceptional vigour and drive. Gramophone said\nof his recently concluded Halvorsen series (from which La\nMélancolie and Bojarernes Indtogsmarsch are taken): ‘Järvi finds in\nthe music a drama and pathos that might come as a revelation even\nto the composer.’

\n

Also on this disc is the ‘Jester’s Dance’ from Tchaikovsky’s The\nSnow Maiden, a personal favourite of the conductor’s, and one that\nJärvi often performs as an encore at his many concerts around the\nworld.
