These live recordings demonstrate the quality Jurowski and his London Philharmonic Orchestra have achieved over years of working their way through Tchaikovsky’s symphonies in concert. Jurowski finds an ideal balance between the classical and the romantic, and he can manage sudden shifts of mood with apparent ease. He respects the letter of the score and doesn’t pull the music around, but it never feels straitjacketed. Everything sounds natural and organic, and often very intense. It’s a convincing and powerful approach.
