Composed in 1888 the Fifth Symphony is generally considered to be the most attractive of Tchaikovsky’s major works. When he first began writing the symphony he was suffering from a deep depression. However, he moved to the countryside and his state of mind became much more relaxed, enjoying the peace and quiet, gaining a new-found pleasure from his garden. This E minor Symphony reflects all the violent and conflicting emotions that he was experiencing at the time of its composition.
Muti and the Philadelphians provide a grey and sombre opening Andante - Allegro con anima that gives way to increased weight and power. One, however, wonders if Muti is keeping something in reserve. The principal elements of melancholy and beauty are blended to considerable effect in the Andante cantabile, con alcuna licenza, although the speeds feel rather too measured. Here Muti builds up great tension in a moving interpretation. In the Valse - Allegro moderato the infectious playing is light with a convincing lilt. With highly authoritative playing the Philadelphia convey a triumphant mood in the Finale: Andante maestoso - Allegro vivace movement.
Tchaikovsky composed Francesca da Rimini in less than three weeks during his visit to Bayreuth in 1876. The premiere performance was given in Moscow in 1877 and proved so popular that the work was repeated twice a couple of months later. This is programme music of Dante’s Francesca da Rimini with the first section depicting the gateway to the Inferno and the agonies of the condemned. The middle section represents the tragic love of Paolo and Francesca, and the third part returns to the Inferno followed by a concluding section.
In Francesca da Rimini Muti and the Philadelphians revel in the fierce and stormy passages but provide contrast in music of contemplation with an air of mystery. The clarinet playing from Anthony Gigliotti especially at 8:28-9:25 is impeccable.–Michael Cookson
