Eugen Jochum’s Brahms might be described as ‘slimmed-down’ Furtwangler. Many of the gestures are remarkably familiar... The Fourth witnesses parallel accelerations in tempo (first and last movements especially) while the Second ‘opens out’ very much a la Furtwangler and the finale’s heady peroration will have you leaping from your armchair. Still, it would be cruelly misleading to suggest that Jochum’s Brahms is merely an urbane re-enactment of his great predecessor. There are many points of departure, not least in the way he blends and dovetails instrumental lines and the sort of sound he draws from his respective orchestras – so much leaner than Furtwangler’s. The playing, too, is extremely polished – sleek in the Fourth’s Allegro giocoso and warmly blended in the more lyrical episodes [such as the] Andante moderato... Extremely enjoyable.
-- Gramophone [1/1997] |
