Thomas ZehetmairAbout
In his years as Music Director of the British chamber orchestra, Zehetmair was noted both for bringing compelling new music into the repertoire and for insightful performances of classical and modern composition, qualities very much in evidence on this concert recording from The Sage, Gateshead.
The album opens with John Casken's double concerto That Subtle Knot, written in 2012-3 for Zehetmair, Ruth Killius and the Northern Sinfonia. Inspired by the poetry of John Donne, the composition establishes a broad arc between the English Renaissance and music of today. Ruth Killius shines in a revelatory performance of Bartók's Viola Concerto, and Zehetmair as conductor fully brings out what liner note writer Giselher Schubert describes as "the juggernaut propulsive thrust" of Beethoven's Symphony no.5.
