Conductor Marek Janowski has been a longtime dependable presence on the international scene; he has done significant work in Paris, Berlin and Dresden, Germany, among other cities, and his seemingly forgotten 1980s Ring cycle recording recently was proclaimed by Gramophone magazine to be the all-around first choice for Wagner's monument. Then comes this series of new, SACD standard-repertoire discs with his Geneva-based Suisse Romande orchestra and the Pittsburgh Symphony, where he's been an interim figure since Mariss Jansons' departure. And just what do we have here?
The Brahms/Pittsburgh recordings are never less than excellent, though in this oft-recorded repertoire that's not always enough. All the performances are marked by an extraordinary sense of singing line and brisk tempos, which are more of what the composer expected than the slower ruminations of recent times. The second is so lyrical as to seem somewhat uneventful; the third is many volts ahead on the electricity scale, and is by itself worth the price of the disc. Janowski's Symphony No. 1 is remarkably cogent and structure-minded, though the Haydn variations are just a notch above routine.
