This Year, We Celebrate The Thirty-Year Conducting Career Of Neeme Järvi With Chandos Records, As Well As The Conductor’S Own Seventy-Fifth Birthday.

We Mark The Occasion With This Two-Disc Set Of Highlights, Featuring A Varied Selection Of Concert Hall Rarities And Core Classics, Along With Some Popular Showpieces And Examples Of Järvi’S Championing Of Estonian And American Music.

In The Course Of His Conducting Career, Järvi Has Amassed A Distinguished Discography Of More Than 440 Recordings, Well Over 150 Of Them For Chandos.

Järvi Has A Rare Ability To Galvanise An Orchestra Into Giving An Interpretation Of Exceptional Vigour And Drive. Gramophone Said Of His Recently Concluded Halvorsen Series (From Which La Mélancolie And Bojarernes Indtogsmarsch Are Taken): ‘Järvi Finds In The Music A Drama And Pathos That Might Come As A Revelation Even To The Composer.’

Also On This Disc Is The ‘Jester’S Dance’ From Tchaikovsky’S The Snow Maiden, A Personal Favourite Of The Conductor’S, And One That Järvi Often Performs As An Encore At His Many Concerts Around The World.
