## Description

Former Principal Conductor and Music Director of the London Philharmonic Klaus Tennstedt leads the Orchestra in these live concert performances of Beethoven's 'Pastoral' Symphony No. 6 and his Overture to Egmont, recorded in 1991 and 1992 at Royal Festival Hall, London. Mr. Tennstedt's tenure with the LPO was characterized by his specialism in German repertoire, and the energy and emotional involvement that endeared him with musicians and audiences alike. On the BBC at the time, Mr. Tennstedt stated, 'I think no orchestra in the world can now better play than the London Philharmonic.'

    A great tribute to a outstanding maestro...
  

*by R***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 4, 2015*

This is a lovely supplement to Tennstedt's EMI recording with the LPO that was one of the first CDs I ever bought.  I've always felt that the Pastoral symphony is the most difficult Beethoven symphonies to bring off since it can easily sound trite and superficial, (Karajan's 1960's recording with the Berlin  Philharmonic was a low point in an otherwise distinguished cycle) or just plain uneventful since the predominance of the key of F Major can lead to monotony if a conductor is not paying attention. Tempi relationship is everything but it can also be overdone, leading to an over egging of the pudding.  However, a master conductor such as Tennstedt had the ability to conceal his art of just gently nudging the tempi along so boredom doesn't set in. This was a reason his studio recording was so successful and this live performance highlights his genius for taking the same ingredients and taking them to new heights in a concert situation.What is common to both recordings is the obvious love the orchestra had for their maestro and this is manifested in some beautiful playing from all sections of the orchestra.  At this point in Tennestedt's life it was becoming increasingly obvious that he was never going to make 'old bones'  and the orchestra seemed to realise that there were few occasions like this one left.If there is a slight criticism then the ever so prominent flute could be seen as a result of not quite accurate microphone placing but that is to pick nits!  Whenever I write these reviews I always ask a basic question - does this recording reveal anything about a score I've not notices before?  Well, in this disc it is, for me, all about the interplay of the wind section. There is so much detail I've not noticed before despite having heard this work literally hundreds of times.The Egmont overture is extremely dramatic and is very persuasively played.This disc is no available for very little money so snap up this bargain while you can.

    Very fine
  

*by I***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 5, 2018*

This is in the most part a glorious recording. Klaus Tennstedt has a fine way with Beethoven: emotive, but not overly reverent. Looking at the timings on this disc, things initially seem relatively slow (especially the last movement), yet on listening one never feels stasis. The first movement in particular seems just right in its pacing. It is not rushed in the slightest, but nor is it overly sombre like Klemperer or Harnoncourt. At times, things do sound a bit run-of-the-mill, and textures are occasionally a bit muddy. I prefer Böhm’s absolute clarity in this piece. The Brook is one of the finest I’ve heard, gorgeous and relaxed. The storm is an absolute whale, utterly thrilling.Quibbles: the peasants aren’t quite rustic or trenchant enough for me, and the last movement knocks on the door of the numinous, but doesn’t quite inhabit it. If one had to pick top choices, then for me it would still be Böhm’s ageless recording, or Abbado/BPO if you like it brisker, but still overflowing with a feeling that most modern recordings neglect. This Tennstedt recording is well worth hearing though, and is better than most Pastorals I have heard. At this price it is a bargain.
