The latest mastering of the WDR (Western German Radio) original by Mr. Saito of Altus. Tower Records exclusive, first SACD in completely limited quantity! She is a master of creating deep shadows in melodies by making full use of her elegant technique and delicate tones, and is also the owner of rare beauty. Edith Peinemann (1937 ~2023). Her extremely valuable broadcast recording collection, which fills that void, will be made into the world's first SACD. Born in Mainz as the daughter of a concertmaster, Peinemann was taught the violin by her father, and then honed her skills under Heinz Stanske. At the age of 17, Günter Henle, the founder of a music score publisher, became her patron. , he went to London to study under Max Rostal, a senior student of Karl Flesch. In 1956, when she was 19 years old, she won the prestigious Munich International Music Competition. Her career began as a star of hope for the German violin world, which had been exhausted by World War II. In the 1960s and 1970s, the "cold" playing style symbolized by Heifetz was popular, but in addition to Flesch's rational playing style, she possessed the emotional musicality of mainstream Germany. , Steinberg, and other conductors who were forced to emigrate to the United States, as well as Keilbert and Wandt in Germany, who loved his art and performed with him repeatedly. She put a contract with a record company on hold on Sel's advice, and as a result missed the chance to sign a contract, but instead, as a freelancer, she received requests from broadcast stations all over Germany to record for broadcast. (This situation is similar to Johanna Marzi's case). Since 2017, Peineman has supervised the release of her broadcast recordings on CD. The first of these was the four violin concertos recorded on WDR (Western German Radio), which will be released on SACD for the first time. The first two songs are monaural recordings. The first is by Beethoven, which she performed with Sell in 1964, and the second is by Mendelssohn, which she performed with Keilbert in 1960 when she was only 23 years old. There are no commercial recordings of either of these, and these were the songs she performed when she first came to Japan with the Munich Philharmonic in 1972, so these are extremely valuable recordings. During the long section of Beethoven's first movement, her performance gradually becomes more heated, reaching its climax just before the cadenza (written by Kreisler). The scene where Sell leads the orchestra into a cadenza in response to this is the best part to listen to. The second movement, which combines the beauty of the melodic line with warm human emotions, and the third movement, whose powerful and elastic rhythm enlivens the song with vitality, are also exquisite. Mendelssohn, on the other hand, gave a passionate performance that directly confronted Keilbert's profound and condensed sound. Although changes in speed, strength, and tone color are often used depending on the song's mood, I think it is wonderful that, like Keilbert, he does not lose the clean flow of the music. The last two songs are stereo recordings. The third piece is Sibelius's No. 1, which he co-starred with Keilbert in 1967, and the fourth piece is Prokofiev's No. 1, which he co-starred with Vandt in 1975. Both are valuable recordings with no commercial recordings of her. In Sibelius, first of all, Keilbert's majestic conducting is superb. Surrounded by this orchestra, Peineman uses stable technique and a variety of tones to make his violin resound with passion, delivering a performance that is well worth listening to. The focus is on the tempo of the third movement. The recording of Heifetz's rapid performance in the 6-minute range had a great influence on later generations, but Peinemann emphasized the instruction of ``ma non troppo'' (but not too fast) and recorded it over 8 minutes ( There are few performances longer than 8 minutes, and the current version is about the Neveu version). This recording proves that she was not swayed by the "Heifetz syndrome" that swept through her time. Prokofiev collaborated with the later great master Vanto. Peinemann recalled that he was confused when Vandt asked for Prokofiev's No. 1 every time they performed together, and the records back this up. Her first collaboration with Prokofiev was in 1963 at the North German Radio Symphony Orchestra, and 19 years later, in September 1982, she performed the same piece with him at the symphony's inaugural concert as chief conductor. The same song performed with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Wandt was released on CD in January 1983 by Profile, but the performance is flawless and this Cologne version is excellent. This is because Vandt's conducting is calmer than in the Bavarian version; for example, the first movement in the Cologne version takes 30 seconds more time than the Bavarian version, allowing the lyrical beauty and color sense of this work to bloom more slowly. Peinemann's violin stands out for its beautiful tone and delicate use of vibrato, starting with the first theme, which the composer wrote as sognando (dreamy). The evocative way in which the second theme of the narrante (in a recitation style) is played contrasts well with the first theme, and the subsequent soaring of the song's thoughts are depicted with great force. The vividness of the musical changes and the expression of frenzy in the second movement, Scherzo, are thrilling. The powerful emotional expression in the final movement does not show any hint of ambivalence, and its realistic appeal touches the heart of the listener. This time, the sound source that was originally released commercially on CD or LP has been remastered to the latest version for this SACD version. As it is an SACD, the expression and tone that Peineman was aiming for are even more prominent due to the high resolution. In addition, taking advantage of the characteristics of the SACD format, we have recorded approximately 125 minutes of four songs on a single SACD single layer. She can enjoy four songs without interruption. In addition, the commentary booklet also reproduces the preface commentary that was published when the LP was released, as well as the English translation of Peinemann himself talking about each conductor he co-stars with. Please use this as a valuable resource for understanding Peineman.
