LEOS JANACEK (1854-1928)
Symphonic Suite from "Jenufa" – 22:57
This release is the second in the "Pittsburgh Live!" series of multi-channel hybrid SACD releases on the FRESH! series from Reference Recordings
"Well, this year they've (Reference Fresh! Label) trumped themselves with even more idiomatic performances and an even more naturally dynamic recording...
The realization and performance of the suite from Janácek's Jenufa (conceptualized by Honeck, realized by Tomás Ille) is brilliant, and streets ahead of Peter Breiner's conducting of his own arrangement for Naxos
Conducted and played with appropriate style and verve and recorded in the best and most thrilling sound, this new disc immediately goes to the top of the list"
