One of the most wondrous friendships in musical history was the one between Pyotr Ilyitch Tchaikovski and a rich noblewoman, Nadjezhda von Meck. She worshipped Tchaikovski from afar and initiated a correspondence which, over the years, would amount to some 1200 letters. Madame Von Meck became Tchaikovskis patroness and granted him a generous yearly allowance. In this way it became possible for Pyotr Ilyitch to resign his detested job as a professor at the Moscow conservatory, concentrate on composing, and travel, preferably abroad. The two agreed that they would never meet, in order to avoid any emotional complications which might arise. Thanks to the extensive correspondence, we are well informed about numerous details of Tchaikovskis life, including the background to his Fourth Symphony in f, op. 36, from 1877. Around this time, Tchaikovski had unexpectedly rushed into a marriage in order to avoid revealing his homosexuality. After a week with his bride, the composer suffered a nervous breakdown and made an attempt at suicide, after which the marriage was dissolved on medical advice. It was against this backdrop that the Fourth Symphony was composed…

() Een opname waarin de partituur verbluffend gedetailleerd met ongevenaarde luciditeit voor de luisteraar wordt uitgespreid. Mede dankzij de klankregie van Channel Classics is elk instrument glashelder te horen. Het resultaat is volstrekt integer en, inderdaad, ideaal –Volkskrant

() alleszins geslaagde doorvoering die vanaf begin tot eind doorleefd is. Klassieke Zaken () a wonderfully rich yet transparent soundstage () () Fischer makes the best of the regional tone colour of his winds and the agility of his divided violins. () –International Record Review

Ivan Fischers Budapest Festival Orchestra has acquired a reputation as one of Europes finest and most individual. () Warmly recommended, even if you already have these works in your collection. Evening Standard **** Tchaikovsky played from the head as well as from the heart. () Fischer has enough that is meaningful and individual to justify a secure place among top digital recommendations. –Gramophone

Ivan Fischer sait tirer de son Budapest Festival Orchestra des sonorits inimitables. Un son qui a du corps, de la nervosit, qui flatte la note, soutient un rythme sans jamais devenir bruyant. Y compris dans les plus fracassants tutti que Tchaikovsky a l’art de dchaner dans son Romeo et Juliette et sa 4e symphonie. Avec, en sus, une tendresse soyeuse des cordes, une vivacit des vents, et, un peu partout, le sens de la danse. –Le Soir

I have awarded this fine disc five stars because it is simply an exemplary SACD offering, delighting in the music it contains and consistently gratifying in its splendid sonics. () –Audiophile Audition
