Description

[Machine Translation] Michelangelo or Unkei? A miraculous statue of a "giant" dug out from the hollow by a genius sculptor of sound without parallel in the world of conducting. The news that Andrea Battistoni, the young Italian conductor prodigy, would once again take the podium as a substitute conductor for the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra's subscription program thrilled fans who had been astonished by Respighi's Rome Trilogy in May 2013. This is a live recording of the last day of the concert. The genius of this 26-year-old conductor has already been cited by such predecessors of Italian conductors as Toscanini, Abbado, and Muti, but his genius is exceptional, and in the not-too-distant future he may even be mentioned in the same breath as such landmark figures as Furtwangler, Karajan, and Kleiber. In the not-too-distant future, he may even be mentioned in the same breath as such landmark figures as Furtwangler, Karajan and Kleiber. If one were to look for an analogy, it would be better to look to the world of sculpture, such as Michelangelo and Unkei, rather than to the world of music. The performance was as fresh and realistic as if he had composed it himself, as if he had simply carved out what was there.

Description in Japanese

マーラー: 交響曲第1番「巨人」 / アンドレア・バッティストーニ (指揮)/東京フィルハーモニー交響楽団

その才、ミケランジェロか運慶か。指揮界に類型なき音の天才彫師が、中空より掘り出した奇跡の「巨人」像。イタリアの若き天才指揮者、アンドレア・バッティストーニが再び東京フィル定期に代棒で登壇するというとニュースは、2013年5月のレスピーギ: ローマ三部作で度肝を抜かれたファンを狂喜させた。これは、その最終日のライヴ録音。当日とって若干26歳のこの天才を形容するのに、早くもトスカニーニ、アバド、ムーティ、といったイタリア人指揮者の先達が引き合いに出されているが、その偉才は格別で、遠からぬ将来、フルトヴェングラー、カラヤン、クライバーといった時代を画した存在に連なるものとして語られることになる可能性すら秘めている。強いて類型を探すとすれば、音楽界よりもミケランジェロや運慶といった超・彫刻の世界へ目を向けた方が良いかもしれない。奇しくも曲の作曲年代とほぼ並行してこの作品に初めて取り組んだわけだが、"そこにあるものをただ彫り起こしただけ"といった趣の、まさに自らが作曲したかのような鮮度とリアリティーを湛えた演奏となった。
