The Tapiola Sinfonietta here performs Kalevi Ahos three chamber symphonies: three works that stretch the expressive capabilities of a string orchestra, and are thus highly demanding for the players. The solo alto saxophone part in Chamber Symphony No.3 was written for the soloist John-Edward Kelly who appears here. Aho describes the piece as a hybrid of chamber symphony and saxophone concerto. The Tapiola Sinfonietta has earned high praise from reviewers around the world for its recordings ranging from Arvo Pärt to Saint-Saëns and von Weber. The conductors Jean-Jacques Kantorow and Stefan Asbury are both close collaborators with the orchestra.
The Tapiola Sinfonietta's performances are splendid, crisp and lithe in Nos. 1 and 2 under Asbury's taut direction. Kantorow elicits more expansive but no less electric playing in No. 3 where they partner Kelly (the original soloist on dazzling form here) as equals. BIS's SACD recording is first-rate, the acoustic of the Tapiola Concert Hall affording these works the finest possible environment in which to be heard at their best. –Guy Rickards, Gramophone
Recorded sound is absolutely spectacular, capturing every detail of these superb performances. The Tapiola Sinfonietta produces a vigorous, fresh ensemble sound for both conductors, and it sounds as though ever member of the orchestra is in fact a world-class soloist. Kelly clearly lives the third Chamber symphony; his technical capacity is beyond dispute and he has the gift of making his instrument sound like the oriental siren that seems to have influenced the composer. Recommended unreservedly. –– IRR OUTSTANDING –Ivan Moody, International Record Review
The tightly-argued Second… places exceptionally high demands on the players. As in all three Symphonies, spotlighted players and the ensemble meet the challenged with skill and conviction. And the Third, too, is as full of passion as of technical fireworks and structural fascination. –– 5*/5* –Barry Witherden, BBC Music Magazine
