5.0 out of 5 stars English music of strong character and originality, Jan 29 2000
By Brooks (Chappaqua, New York USA) - See all my reviews
Arne is not one of those countless Handel imitators who sprung up to fill his shoes after the great German master's death. Although I personally like the music of such composers as Boyce and Stanley, Thomas Arne (1711-1778) forges forward musically into a more Italianate and pre-classical vein by the time he wrote these symphonies in the 1760's. They were written for a middle-class London audience--to be performed in the open air in fashionable Vauxhall Garderns. The symphony in E flat is particularly fine--the opening movement is marked by a march tempo with fully classical and appropriate use of drums and trumpets without the top-heavy sound of someone like Boyce. Adrian Shepherd directs Cantilena on modern instruments, and it still sounds very believable. Arne however was more a composer of opera, so one should check out the recent recordings of his opera "Artaxerxes" on Hyperion or of Nicholas McGegan's recording of the masque "Alfred", from which the original air "Rule, Britannia!" came from. Haydn himself deeply admired the then-dead Arne's work when he visited London in 1791, impressed by the still-running opera "Artaxerxes." This disc is a fine promo for probably the most important and influential figure in English music between Handel and Elgar.
