Fricchai's famous performance "New World", which can be said to be a representative of DG recording, and "Moldau", which also shook the Berlin Philharmonic, and one of Kodaly's masterpieces, which continued to be featured with extraordinary enthusiasm throughout his life along with Bartók, "Hari Suite". ・Janos" is a truly golden combination album. "New World", recorded in 1959, is a performance where you can feel the underlying strength of the Berliner Philharmoniker with a low center of gravity and Fricchay's outstanding sense of tempo and skillful switching. You can It is an attractive performance that pushes away many recordings, and it is a masterpiece that can be placed on the front line even after 60 years since its recording.
"Moldau" starts at an early tempo, and the mid-section with plenty of reverberations has a sense of liberation and flowing tempo. Due to the ability of the orchestra, it has become a rare masterpiece. There are many opportunities to play alone, and there are many recordings here, but this performance can also be said to be a recording that feels like Fricchay. Furthermore, it is no exaggeration to say that Kodaly's representative orchestral work, the suite "Hari Janos", is the definitive version of this piece, and this re-recording just seven years after the first recording in 1954. Although there is a difference between stereo and mono, the world of Kodaly is depicted more densely. The music that emphasizes universal musicality rather than excessive ethnicity must be a performance that many listeners will be satisfied with. Also, this recording was recorded just two months before Fricchay gave up conducting activities, and it can be said that it is one of the last recordings.
