description
Georg Tintner's legacy continues with the Naxos release of three more excellent live recordings with Symphony Nova Scotia. Hearing these broadcasts, it is easily forgotten now, just how much of a low point the Halifax orchestra had sunk into, during the dark days of the dissolution of the old Atlantic Symphony and the faltering recovery under Boris Brott. Tintner's arrival as music director there produced results, in little more than a year, that were nothing short of miraculous. That the orchestra pulled itself up by its bootstraps is by now a legend, but it probably would have never have occurred without the active intervention of Tintner.
The orchestra on all these recordings is warm, balanced and precise. Aside from the occasional stray bassoon note in the Brahms Third, the musicians are in top form. Principal oboist Suzanne LeMieux shines all over these discs. It is incredible to think that one is hearing a "mere" provincial orchestra in the Maritimes.
