馬勒: 第一號交響曲(巨人) 芳斯瓦-澤維爾.羅斯 指揮 世紀樂團 Francois-Xavier Roth / Les Siecles / Mahler: Symphony No. 1 in D major (Titan)

世紀樂團根據來自於布達佩斯,漢堡和威瑪的手稿, 並與Universal Edition出版社和音樂學家Anna Stoll Knecht和Benjamin Garzia密切合作, 找出是那一類的樂器被使用在馬勒第一號交響曲第二版本(巨人)的首演中(漢堡/威瑪, 1893-94). (巨人)起初是以兩部份總共五個樂章的交響詩形式呈現, 此版本在發展過程中持續遭受嚴苛的批評. 這吸引人的重建發展過程從多方面來看驗證了一位近代最偉大的交響曲之一的天才之處.

Les Siecles has worked from the Budapest, Hamburg and Weimar manuscripts, in close collaboration with Universal Edition, the musicologist Anna Stoll Knecht and Benjamin Garzia, to offer us, on the types of instruments on which it was premiered and for the first time on record, the second version (Hamburg/Weimar 1893-94) of Mahler's First Symphony. Initially presented as a symphonic poem in two parts and five movements entitled 'Titan', this version continually faced severe criticism as it developed. The fascinating reconstruction testifies in many respects to the genius of one of the greatest symphonists of the modern era!
