Vox Records presents this stunning high-fidelity digital transfer of Igor Markevitch heading the Royal Danish Orchestra in performance of Carl Nielsen's Symphony No. 4, Op. 29, CNW 28 "The Inextinguishable".
Distinguished as one of the great conductors of the century, Igor Markevitch studied the piano with Cortot and composition with Nadia Boulanger. He performed his Piano Concerto in London, a work commissioned by Diaghilev during the last season of his Ballets Russes in 1929. Markevitch made his debut as a conductor in 1930 with the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, going on to study with Scherchen. He wrote his last compositions during the war, thereafter devoting himself to conducting.
Carl Nielsen, the principal post-Romantic Danish composer, was born in 1865, the son of a painter and village musician. Childhood experience as an amateur performer led to subsidised study at the Copenhagen Conservatory and a long career during which he developed his own personal style of composition, in particular in a series of important symphonies.
