The colour wheel turned up to 11 January 8, 2018 By Dean Frey 'As with earlier discs in this Respighi series from BIS, John Neschling has the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liege firing on all cylinders, which is such a plus for a composer who provides so many opportunities for the orchestra to show off. So it's quite a surprise to see that two of these three pieces didn't begin as rich and gaudy orchestral showpieces. Vetrate Di Chiesa (Church Windows) started out as Tre preludi sopra melodie gregoriane, three charming pieces written in 1919-21 for solo piano.

In 1925 Respighi opened up and colourized these melodies, and added a fourth work as a bonus. Listen to that opulent final piece, San Gregorio Magno; this is wide-screen, Technicolor music, and it's not afraid of nudging up against effects some might find vulgar.

It's great fun, so you might not notice at first how Neschling has his fine musicians playing with such determination and precision. Il Tramanto (The Sunset) is a cantata based on a Shelley poem that Respighi wrote in 1914, for mezzo-soprano and string quartet. It's played here with a full complement of strings, and sung by the splendid soprano Anna Caterina Antonacci. Even without winds, brass, percussion and organ, everything I've said about colour in Church Windows is relevant here. This is partly due to superb playing and singing, and partly because of the the 35-year-old composer's skillful blend of the styles of his compatriot Puccini and a couple of composers from the other side of the Alps: Richard Strauss and Richard Wagner.

I'd never heard this music before, and my view of Respighi has gone up considerably now that I know it well. The Trittico Botticelliano is my favourite Respighi work, and it receives a lavish recording here. Neschling translates Respighi's fine sense of both melody and orchestral colour, analogues of Botticelli's legendary line and colour, into a perfectly balanced performance. It's great to see this Brazilian conductor, who completely nailed the Villa-Lobos Choros series in his 2008 recordings with OSESP, also from BIS, doing the same on the other side of the Atlantic. This is the second disc I've reviewed in 2018, and I'm pleased to be able to praise the cover design once again.

I hope we can keep that streak going! It's based on a detail from the 1914 International Art Glass Catalogue by the National Ornamental Glass Manufacturers Association of the United States and Canada.

Bach, arranged by Respighi Pini di Roma (Pines of Rome Renaissance Impressionism Like an impressionist painter, Respighi sketches Botticelli’s three most important works: Spring, The Adoration of the Magi, and The Birth of Venus.

Early baroque stylistic quotations pervade these atmospheric pictures, which are rendered musically with a small orchestra’s fine brush strokes. Romantic Baroque We encounter a completely different compositional facet in the arranger Respighi, who adapted a whole series of organ works by Bach for symphony orchestra and with them produced top-quality orchestral compositions. Amazing but true: Bach’s baroque and the romantic era are a perfect match! Roman Atmosphere Respighi’s Pines of Rome is one of his most famous works, and these highly appealing musical atmospheric pictures fully exploit the tone colors of the large symphonic orchestra. Here MDG’s 3D recording technique is employed to perfection when the nightingale prescribed in the score is heard above up front on the left, the faraway trumpet position on the neighboring hill is heard up on the right, and the fluegelhorn part completely surrounds the listeners from behind.
