Lovro von Matacic Archive
BRUCKNER: Symphony No. 4 in E-flat Major “Romantic” – Orch. Sinfonica di Milano della RAI/ Lovro von Matacic – Archipel
Croatian Bruckner specialist Matacic whips up his RAI forces into one resplendent, “impolite” vision of this, the most accessible of the Austrian composer’s often knotty scores.
DVOŘÁK: Piano Concerto in G Minor; GRIEG: Piano Concerto; SCHUMANN: Piano Concerto – Sviatoslav Richter, p./ Bavarian State Orch. Munich/ Carlos Kleiber (Dvořák)/ Monte Carlo Nat. Opera Orch./ Lovro von Matačić – EMI Signature Collection (2 discs)
Good to have this available again, but has some problems.
MOZART: Missa brevis in C Major, K. 220; Symphony No. 38 in D Major, K. 504 “Prague”; HAYDN: Nine German Dances -Soloists/RAI Orch./Lovro von Matacic – Archipel
Matacic extended his repute for explosive musical prowess at RAI concerts in Naples and Turin.
SMETANA: Ma Vlast – ORF Radio-Sym. Orch. Vienna/ Lovro von Matacic – Orfeo (2 CDs)
Lovro von Matacic leads an inflamed version of the complete Ma Vlast, one he meant for universal export and impact well beyond its over-indulged “The Moldau”.
WAGNER Excerpts – Roberta Knie, sop./Zagreb Philharmonic/Lovro von Matacic – VAI
Wagner acolytes will gallop to this concert from 1977, in which conductor Matacic and his stellar soprano intone the glories of this composer in ravishing sound.
