Pelléas & Mélisande in a new light.
This new OSR recording presents the two most ambitious musical responses to Maurice Maeterlinck's epochal 1893 play Pelléas et Mélisande, with conductor Jonathan Nott creating a new suite of Debussy's opera that is much more expansive, focusing more on the actual drama and symphonic development than previous suites that relied heavily on Debussy's interludes.
Schoenberg's Pelleas and Melisande is often perceived as relatively "amorphous," its narrative structure opaque, hiding all but the most explicit references to the drama on which Schoenberg's opera is based. In this recording, Jonathan Nott introduces a novel division of titles and analytical titles that make the music's relation to the story much more tangible to the listener. The juxtaposition with the music of Debussy's opera allows us to compare the two works and see how the most important innovators in music at the turn of the century responded to this haunting story, symbolist history.
