Description:

The supreme beauty of Toshiyuki Ueoka, a solitary genius. Toshiyuki Ueoka became the fourth Music Director of the New Japan Philharmonic in September 2016. The first concert of his season as Music Director will be this R. Strauss. This is the second album following Mahler: Symphony No. 1 "Titan," which was released to great acclaim. The duo, which has begun to make rapid progress, is in full force. The album is not just a massive and powerful performance, but also a unique Strauss performance by Toshiyuki Ueoka. The brilliance and beauty of Strauss's music is released through the natural spinning of his meticulously crafted orchestration. The harmonies are endlessly expanding. A beautiful world of lyricism and spirituality belonging to the late German Romanticism seems to spread out before your eyes. Please enjoy the splendid R. Strauss performed by Ueoka & the New Japan Philharmonic Orchestra, which continues to evolve. Octavia Records
