Always keeping one eye on educating tomorrow’s audiences, Danish orchestral conductor Thomas Dausgaard accords great importance to the role that music can play in the lives of young people. That is why he has collaborated with young people’s orchestras like the Baccarelli Institute in Brazil, the Toronto Youth Symphony and the Australian Youth Orchestra. This unique conductor is a real free radical in the often-hidebound world of classical music. His curiosity goes far beyond the borders of music. He is fascinated in particular by the ways of life of faraway peoples: he has visited head-hunting tribes in Borneo, worked on a Chinese farm, and lived with villagers on a remote South Pacific island.

The musical life of the countries of Northern Europe, with its often neglected richness, has found in Thomas Dausgaard an ambassador to bring it to light. He is also the head of the BBC Scotland Orchestra and musical director of the Seattle Symphony Orchestra, where his very personal approach to programming is avidly appreciated.

With his Scottish orchestra, Thomas Dausgaard offers the alpha and the omega of the symphonic works of Béla Bartók, with the exuberant Suite no. 1, a youthful work and the composer’s first score for orchestra, recorded for the first time in its original version uncut and unaltered. But the pièce de résistance is a splendid version of the Concerto for Orchestra. Fleshy timbres, vigorous rhythms, rigorous construction and a magical, mysterious aura of enchantment. And this is just the start of the fun, as this is only the first volume of a coming anthology of Bartók’s major works. – François Hudry
