Website: cso.org Myspace: myspace.com/chicagosymphony YouTube: youtube.com/csowebmaster The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s record label CSO Resound announces its latest release: MAHLER 6 with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra conducted by Principal Conductor Bernard Haitink In stores everywhere April 8, 2008, including the full album download on iTunes The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s performance of Mahler’s deeply tragic Sixth Symphony, under the direction of CSO Principal Conductor Bernard Haitink, is now available to the world on the CSO Resound label. According to the Chicago Tribune, Haitink’s Mahler 6 “felt so right—[with its] accumulation of massive physical power, the feverish buildup of heroic optimism and its crushing defeat with each fatalistic blow, [and] the magnifi cent intensity of the CSO’s playing.” The Chicago Sun-Times noted, “When have the two trios of the blazing Scherzo movement sounded so gentle, like lullabies? When has the Andante felt so personal?” Rich in tradition and innovative in vision, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is a musical force in Chicago and around the world. The CSO has produced one of the most expansive discographies of any international orchestra, with more than 900 recordings since 1916. Recordings by the CSO have won 58 Grammy® Awards, more than any other orchestra in the world. In 2007, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra continued its celebrated recording tradition by launching its new in-house recording label, CSO Resound. CSO Resound features the sounds of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra today, with new recordings of thrilling live performances, featuring world-class conductors and guest artists. The name, CSO Resound, reflects the distinct and powerful sound of the orchestra itself—an ensemble of musicians renowned for its sonic brilliance—as well as “re-sound,” as each recording will document and extend the experience of a unique concert event. “Mahler’s massive Symphony No. 6 is played by Haitink and the CSO with a transparency, even a delicacy, that seems to stop time.” —Chicago Sun-Times “Big and assertive . . . Seldom has the voice of fate sounded so terrifying.” —Chicago Tribune Also available on CSO Resound: Mahler 3 with Bernard Haitink Bruckner 7 with Bernard Haitink Shostakovich 5 with Myung-Whun Chung Traditions and Transformations: Sounds of Silk Road Chicago with the Silk Road Ensemble, Yo-Yo Ma, Wu Man, Miguel Harth-Bedoya and Alan Gilbert For more information about the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, visit cso.org. |
