Customer Reviews of Boston Symphony Orchestra, Sir John Barbirolli: 1959 - Brahms/Arr. Barbirolli/Delius/Walton
Vintage Barbirolli I had the good fortune to attend Barbirolli's concerts on several occasions and they never failed to please. It's good then to find a video of him at work with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. It can't be pretended that this is in first class sound and the photography is b&w. Nevertheless the music making shines through. <

>The arrangements of Elizabethan music by Barbirolli don't chime in with authenticity and I didn't find this work of much appeal. Delius was a composer associated with this conductor as well as Beecham so it's good to have this included. <
> <
>Walton's Partita is an infectious work and here the orchestral playing is frankly better than it was with Barbirolli's recording with the Halle Orchestra on a BBC CD. <
> <
>It is the Brahms Second Symphony which makes its mark and the audience rise to the occasion. Barbirolli is undemonstrative but allows the work to unfold naturally. This DVD was a great "find" among other treasures from the recording archives of those television companies that regularly televised concerts of orchestras like those in Boston and Chicago. It may be a period piece, but it is great to have such archive material available to enjoy once more.
