专辑简介

What does the work of a conductor actually involve? He moves his hands, arms, his whole body, he makes use of his eyes and facial expressions - and he sings and speaks. But that’s only during rehearsals, of course. Being able to follow a conductor‘s interpretation makes for an exciting process, and conveys the basic idea behind a work far more vividly at the same time. „Conductors in Rehearsal“ is a BR-KLASSIK series that takes a closer look at the “orchestral workshop”. One can experience first-hand how the conductor‘s wishes and instructions are implemented, how his explanations and his temperament change the resulting sound, and what concepts lie behind the interpretation of the work. Thanks to this series - which also features selected guest conductors - the special collaboration between Mariss Jansons and the BRSO has been successfully documented. When rehearsing Tchaikovsky‘s Fifth, Mariss Jansons is concerned with conveying the composer’s inner world. That is precisely what the conductor’s work with his musicians is all about.
