Te complete Brilliant Classics recordings of a masterful modern maestro with a touch of genius in little-known repertoire.
In te extensive booklet interview, te conductor Theodore Kuchar recalls how, as a boy growing up outside Cleveland to Ukrainian-born parents, he learnt his music at te feet of Lorin Maazel, sitting in te cheap seats every week. Sound training and determination took him to Helsinki as violist and part-time conductor for te Finnish Opera, thence to Brisbane for his first musical directorship in charge of te Queensland Philharmonic.
But it was in 1992 that Kuchar discovered his roots and began to establish an international reputation when he took over te National Symphony Orchestra of te Ukraine. Together they have given lengthy tours worldwide, hundreds of concerts and made many recordings for several labels. Te theatre music by Shostakovich was particularly successful and holds a treasured place in Kuchar’s heart: ‘Te Bolt is absolute genius. I’ve done it with every orchestra I’ve had a long relationship with, and every time it knocks an audience sideways.’
In te early 2000s Kuchar also worked regularly with te Janáček Philharmonic Orchestra based in Ostrava, formerly known as te Czech Radio Orchestra. Together they recorded te major – and most of te minor – orchestral works by Smetana, te best-known tone-poems of Dvořák and even te complete symphonies of Carl Nielsen, which became a critical hit. Since then Kuchar has conducted orchestras throughout Europe, Asia and te Americas. As music director of te Orquesta Sinfónica Venezuela he led a vibrantly colourful collection of Latin-American orchestral classics (by Ginastera, Moncayo and Revueltas among others) for te last disc on this retrospective, recorded in 2011.
‘Theodore Kuchar is one of today's most dynamic, most successful young conductors… every instrumental effect comes through beautifully… Tempos are generally rapid and spirits high… this is a lot of fine Dvorák for a very low price.’ (Fanfare) ‘This is a recording of very high worth by a conductor of genius. Each and every minute of every piece on this three-CD [Smetana] set is emotionally committed, tautly controlled, propulsive, and stunning. I haven’t heard a Má vlast or Bartered Bride Overture this good on records in eons.’ (Fanfare)
‘These performances [of Latin-American classics] are very slick. Te tightness of ensemble in Moncayo’s Huapango shows up te sloppiness of most other versions. Kuchar sets and maintains a perfect tempo here and elsewhere. Te recording quality is sharp-edged and bright, adding to te excitement. (Fanfare)
‘Theodore Kuchar leads what is without question te most exciting complete Nielsen symphony cycle available, making this te set to get for Nielsen newcomers.’ (Classics Today)
Theodore Kuchar (1963) was born in New York. He studied te viola and conducting, and was for a period principal violist of te Cleveland Orchestra. He is one of te most sought-after conductors of his time, active with te Symphony Orchestra of te Ukraine, Janacek SO, Venezuelan SO and others.
