|
"The Orpheus are most compelling in Three Places in New England. I first got to know the work from a 1957 Mercury LP with Howard Hanson conducting the Eastman-Rochester Orchestra—that performance, now on CD, still wears well and so does the music. Like the best of Ives, his Three Places remains vital in its fascinating depiction of moods and events. In ''Putnam's Camp'' the Orpheus, without a conductor, neatly manage the two marching rhythms simultaneously in separate metres, the unique Ives experience. (One starts at 2'24'', the other at 2'37''.) . . . The Orpheus recording of The Unanswered Question enters rightly at the threshold of audibility and sustains this rapt atmosphere. As Ives's sketches have been explored, alternative readings of many works have become available. Slatkin's trumpeter plays all his repeated question phrases to end consistently on a B flat: the Orpheus soloist follows the familiar pattern ending alternately on C and B natural, but ending on C. . . . It's good to have the Orpheus well recorded in this repertoire." -- Peter Dickinson, Gramophone [10/1994] |
