Sir Adrian Boult – conductor

 

Perhaps nowhere is the schism between British and American taste more pronounced than with this volume. (Perhaps I flatter myself –the EMI Great Conductors Edition - Sir Adrian Boult I should say between British and my taste.) In a devout and thorough review on the British Musicweb site, Christopher Howell dubs this set “wonderful and revelatory” and lavishes praise on every note. (I really don't mean to sound facetious – please read his fine, informed review .) While I salute Boult's extraordinary contributions to British musical life, the value of his articulate observations and the idiomatic rightness of his performances of English music, the records included here strike me as more dutiful than inspired. In a bold effort to avoid a “greatest hits” repackaging syndrome, with the single exception of the Walton overture the producers consciously shun the English music which he championed and of which he was an acknowledged master in favor of an effort to display the catholic side of his repertoire. His readings of the Tchaikovsky, Schubert, Wolf and even Berlioz are stylish and succeed in the well-manicured tradition of Beecham, et. al. But with music where more transpires beneath the surface, his fastidious precision, urbane moderation and professional polish leave a lot untouched. It's not that his Beethoven, Schumann or even the snippet of Sibelius is dull – on the contrary, they're highly accomplished – but others have found far deeper truths and more edifying insights to explore. --- classicalnotes.net
