Info for Enescu: Symphonies Nos. 1-3; 2 Romanian Rhapsodies



GRAMMY® Award-winning conductor Cristian Măcelaru, Artistic Director of the George Enescu Festival, and his Orchestre National de France are the perfect ambassadors for the symphonic works of George Enescu (1881-1955). While the "Romanian Rhapsodies" included on this album (especially No. 1) have achieved greater fame, the three symphonies have yet to be discovered as true centrepieces of the symphonic repertoire. Enescu, a multi-talented composer and violin virtuoso, was a teacher of Yehudi Menuhin, among others, and lived in Romania, the USA and France. Inspired by the musical heritage of his home country, he created a completely unique oeuvre. Pablo Casals called him "the most amazing musician since Mozart".

"The five compositions presented here offer perfect examples of the artistic development of one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century. From the youthful splendour of the Romanian Rhapsody No. 1 to the profound, ethereal, philosophical conclusion of the Third Symphony, one can discover and relive the journey of this great genius and my personal hero George Enescu." (Cristian Măcelaru)
