All four of the works on this Capriccio disc ... belong to the last phase of Ginastera’s composing life, which began in the late 1950s and continued until his death in 1983. His music became “neo-expressionist” (his own description), and freely incorporated elements from the postwar European avant garde, including serialism and the use of microtones and chance procedures. ... At the end of this life Ginastera seemed to be retreating from his expressionist extremes towards a style much closer to that of his earlier music. Jubilum, composed in 1980 to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the founding of Buenos Aires, maintains the high levels of dissonance but combines them with music that is much more obviously celebratory. Like all the pieces here, it uses a huge orchestra with virtuoso brilliance; Arturo Tamayo’s performance with the Berlin Deutsches Symphonie captures every bit of that brilliance, and they make sure they extract all the dramatic power out of the other pieces in this very useful collection too.
