Abbado's new, revised edition of the Beethoven symphonies with the Berlin Philharmonic

Here is the new complete edition of Claudia Abbado's Beethoven Symphonies with the Berlin Philharmonic. Nos. 1 -8, previously released only on DVD, were recorded live in Rome in 2001, while No. 9 is Abbado's re-edited version of the earlier recording from Berlin. Containing the maestro's final interpretative wishes, this new cycle replaces his Berlin set issued by Deutsche Grammophon in 2000 - now no longer available.

Claudio Abbado comments "There are many reasons for releasing this new edition, above all musical ones. After many performances of the cycle, our interpretative vision had matured, becoming more natural and shared. The concerts in Rome marked significant advances in terms of style, spirit and technique."


Review: "Claudio Abbado recorded a complete Beethoven symphony cycle with the Berlin Philharmonic in 2000 in Berlin. For all its fast tempi and crisp articulation, much of it struck me as rather grey and lifeless. There were some good points - fine accounts of symphonies 1, 2, 4 and 9 in particular - but overall it was disappointing. This 'new' set was mostly recorded just one year later, taken from live performances in Rome, but with the earlier Berlin account of the ninth retained.

Abbado's interpretations seem to have evolved rather a lot in such a short space of time. Tempi are still brisk, but Abbado now gives the music room to breath. In the sleeve notes, the conductor talks about developing more of a shared view with his orchestra. That's readily apparent in the performances. Where before we had an orchestra playing all the notes very proficiently, now there's much more of a sense of an ensemble making music together.

What distinguishes this set from almost every other complete cycle is its remarkable consistency. There isn't a single disappointment amongst the nine. The style is very much in keeping with the current mainstream - played on modern instruments but with transparent textures and lively tempi. Abbado reveals details without expressive point-making, and allows the music to unfold naturally.

There are, of course, many great accounts of individual symphonies by other artists. But if you are looking for a complete cycle by one orchestra and conductor, Abbado's has to be one of the top recommendations.
