About this product
In the early 1960s Goffredo Petrassi's idiom was almost indistinguishable from that of the Italian avantgarde. Completed in 1964, the Seventh Concerto evolves with mounting tension and a sense of underlying menace. The Eighth Concerto from 1972 was commissioned and premiered by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. It is a substantial piece of outright virtuosity, with dissonance, trenchant dialogues and a fraught atmosphere. The much earlier Sonata da camera for harpsichord and ten instruments finds Petrassi poised between neo-Classicism and a more modernist direction. This is the third and final volume of Petrassi's complete Concertos for Orchestra on Naxos (Nos. 1-3 are on 8.573702; Nos. 4-6 are on 8.573703). Album Tracks 1. Settimo Concerto Per Orchestra (1961-64) 2. Ottavo Concerto Per Orchestra (1970-72) 3. Sonata Da Camera, Per Clavicembalo E Dieci Strumenti (1948)

César Franck is perhaps best known for his organ works and late masterpieces such as the Violin Sonata. His Symphony in D minor has also been widely recorded and is often coupled with LeChasseur maudit, a work that ranks among his most popular and frequently performed orchestral works. Les Éolides and Psychéare more impressionistic in atmosphere, and much appreciated for their subtle orchestration and lyrical inventiveness. Jean-Luc Tingaud's recordings for Naxos have always done very well, with Poulenc's Les Biches (8. 573739) given a 10/10 score by ClassicsToday. Com, along with comments such as 'Tingaud's precise, clear-eyed direction is just what this music needs'. Vincent d'Indy's Second Symphony (8. 573522), also with the RSNO, was given a rave review by Fanfare 'This recording [by] Tingaud and his Scottish orchestra should absolutely fire up new interest in a composer who has been unjustly neglected. Very strongly, if not urgently, recommended. ' The Royal Scottish National Orchestra has a worldwide reputation for the quality of it's recordings, receiving two Diapason d'or de l'année awards for Symphonic Music and eight GRAMMY Award nominations over the last decade. The RSNO's numerous Naxos recordings include Roussel's Symphony No. 2(8. 570529) conducted by Stéphane Denève which gained the Gramophone 'Editor's Choice'. Album Tracks 1. Le Chasseur Maudit 2. Psyché - Poème Symphonique Première Partie 3. Deuxième Partie 4. Troisième Partie 5. Les Éolides

Goffredo Petrassi's reputation was established in 1932 when his Partita (available on Naxos 8.572411) won critical acclaim. Petrassi then composed his Concerto for Orchestra, the first of eight, which, upon it's 1935 premiere, secured his reputation outside of Italy. The Second Concerto from 1951 reveals more avante-garde tendencies, while the Third Concerto from 1952-53 is animated and playful. Album Tracks 1. (Primo) Concerto per orchestra~I. Allegro 2.
