Rautavaara: Symphony No. 8 / Inkinen, New Zealand Symphony
Consisting of three movementsâDaydreams, Nightmares and DawnâManhattan Trilogy (2004) does not constitute a symphonic piece as such. Its slow-fast-slow sequence equates to classical precedent, while the thematic working and textural elaboration follow directly from the composerâs practice in his last four symphonies.
Subtitled âThe Journeyâ, the Eighth Symphony (1999) pursues its metamorphosis of ideas in ways similar to those of his previous three symphonies, but here the order of movements is nearly Classical; pointedly so in the second and third, whose contrast is emphasized by a lack of pause between movements.
The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, founded in 1946, is the countryâs leading professional orchestra. It has an establishment of ninety players and performs over 100 concerts annually. They tour extensively within their own country.
Music Director of the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra Pietari Inkinen is one of the most exciting talents of the new generation of conductors. He has collaborated with major orchestras and with soloists such as Vadim Repin, Hilary Hahn, and Pinchas Zukerman. His recording with the Bavarian Chamber Philharmonic has received outstanding reviews and was voted the BBC Music Magazineâs recording of the month.
