Experience what Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti calls “the work of a divine architect” in this special encore presentation of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. Recorded live September 18, 2014, at Orchestra Hall during one of the opening programs of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s 2014/15 season, this performance features Muti leading the Orchestra and Chorus and distinguished soloists in one of history’s most powerful and inspiring artistic works. A masterpiece whose staggering influence can be seen across classical music, it concludes with the famous Ode to Joy, which calls for understanding, peace and universal goodwill. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra is grateful to an anonymous donor for generously underwriting the recording of this concert in 2014.
Musician
エイブラハム・リンカーンが、大統領に再選された1865年。アメリカを内戦状態に追い込んだ南北戦争は4年目に突入したが、彼は奴隷制度を永遠に葬り去る合衆国憲法修正第13条を下院議会で批准させるまでは戦いを終わらせないという強い決意があった。そのためにも、国務長官ウィリアム・スワードらと共に憲法修正に必要な票を獲得するための議会工作に乗り出す。そんな中、学生だった長男ロバートが北軍へと入隊し……。＜スティーヴン・スピルバーグによる、第16代アメリカ合衆国大統領エイブラハム・リンカーンの伝記ドラマ。奴隷制の廃止と禁止を強固なものにし、泥沼化した南北戦争を終結させるため、憲法の修正に挑むリンカーンの戦いを重厚なタッチで映し出していく。ダニエル・デイ=ルイスがリンカーンにふんし、国と人民の未来をめぐる理想と現実に苦悩する彼の胸中を見事に体現。ジョセフ・ゴードン=レヴィットら、脇を固める実力派の妙演も見逃せない。＞

Self
Sibelius's solitary concerto is one of the most passionate tests for the violin virtuoso, one to which Maxim Vengerov is more than equal. He captures the work's passion and its occasional quirky patches of the spookily sublime. His performances of the "Sarabande" from the Bach Second Partita and the "Ballade" from Ysaye's Third Sonata are admirable encores demonstrating his range and his elegant control. Daniel Barenboim's piano performance of the de Falla Nights in the Gardens of Spain is equally virtuosic, bringing out the work's structure as well as its local color. Placido Domingo's conducting is solid and serviceable. Barenboim ends the concert with three de Falla orchestral showstoppers--the "Farruca" from The Three-Cornered Hat and the "Magic Circle" and "Ritual Fire Dance" from Love the Magician. The Chicago Symphony perform throughout with their usual vigor and fine orchestral color, but are particularly remarkable in these three encores
