As usual with first symphonies (think of Gade, Berwald, Alfven, Atterberg, Glazunov, Dohnanyi, Kalinnikov), Svendsen’s is of abundances of freshness, confidence in expression and form (or structure), a certain level of innocence, and surefootedness in orchestral resourcefulness, even if the ideas remains fledging as far as personality is concerned (Mendelssohn’s influence looms quite a bit here). After all, his symphony is a student work, written while he was still studying at the Leipzig Conservatory). His music is highly engaging and sparkling, the ideas nicely tight, controlled, and memorable. Its premiere on October 12, 1867 was such a success that Edvard Grieg unfortunately withdrew his symphony he had written in 1864 & forbade it from ever being performed. It gained a foothold in the repertoire of Scandinavian countries, but not well played elsewhere.
The Second Symphony (1876) is somewhat a more mature endeavor, one which evinces an even more effortless symphonic scope and melodic profile. It does, however, strike a slightly more seriousness in tone and is less ebullient than the First. But the resourcefulness and deftness in the scoring remains as strong as ever (perhaps even stronger, as his resourcefulness suggest broader acquaintances into, say, Schumann and Liszt with hints of Wagner thrown in).
Bjarte Engeset has shown himself to be a promising young Norwegian conductor, and gives himself into the feel of the music with aplomb and sensitivity in articulation and sharpness in phraseology. And the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra responds with plenty of felicitous enthusiasm and stylish refinement throughout.–David Anthony Hollingsworth
