With this release from the London Philharmonic Orchestra and former principal conductor and now conductor emeritus Vladimir Jurowski, we reach the third and concluding volume of their "Jurowski conducts Stravinsky" survey. The previous volumes were released in 2022 and 2023, and the series celebrates the orchestra's year-long Stravinsky festival "Changing Faces" in 2018, which chronologically followed the composer's career alongside works by composers who influenced Stravinsky and those who, in turn, were influenced by him. All the works here except the opening ballet, Pulcinella, were recorded live during that festival; Pulcinella was recorded in December 2020 with COVID-era spacing restrictions and streamed to London Philharmonic audiences several days later. The ensemble's playing is likely hampered a bit by these restrictions as, while the performance is well done overall, there are times when the orchestra is not quite as sharp and together as audiences have grown accustomed to from this powerhouse. The vocal soloists, mezzo-soprano Angharad Lyddon (who also appeared on the first volume of the series), tenor Sam Furness, and bass Matthew Rose, deliver standout performances. The orchestra is in its full power in the Symphony in C. This volume includes several rarely recorded works, notably the Variations: Aldous Huxley in Memoriam, Stravinsky's final completed work for orchestra. There is something here for Stravinsky fans from the entire spectrum, from the neo-Baroque ballet Pulcinella to the wholly serial Threni: id est Lamentationes Jerimiae Prophetae. The latter also features vocal soloists and the London Philharmonic Choir; try the "Sensus spei" segment of the "De elegia tertia" section to hear the considerable dynamic and textural effect of these combined forces. A powerful tribute to Stravinsky and Jurowski's successful tenure leading the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
