		Despite the fact that conductor Kenneth Schermerhorn and his orchestra have done some fine work for the world’s best-selling classical label, they were handing over this beautiful – but difficult – piece to players that don’t pop to mind when great recordings are discussed.
		Schermerhorn and the orchestra not only get it right, the chorus sings this difficult work with such conviction and beauty that this listener has sat with rapt attention several times through a piece that takes just under 80 minutes to complete.

		There haven't been many complete editions of Bachianas Brasileiras, only selections discs like one put out by RCA Victor in 1996 conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas.
		Schermerhorn is a decent conductor and doesn't interpret these pieces as much as play them straight, with the lyricism and playfulness the text requires.
		However, if your only acquaintance with these pieces is No. 5 with its striking yet over-performed vocalise--my first recording was by Joan Baez--then you should be aware of certain things.

	IVES Robert Browning Overture. Symphony No.2. Nashville SO/Schermerhorn - INKPOT
		If that does not melt your heart, the strings at the passage beginning at 6:06 will; that surge of emotion, gauged and built up to as well as it is, will still put a lump in your throat.
		Schermerhorn's players do an excellent job of pointing up the many quotes of American folk songs in this work - enough to make this work a cornucopia of 19th century Americana - just enough to catch our attention, but not so much as to caricature these quotes or unravel the symphonic fabric.
		It is a slightly lower voltage recording than Bernstein's, but only slightly, and both Schermerhorn's interpretation and the playing of the Nashville Symphony feel much more natural, less pulled out of shape here and there, than that of Lenny and his New Yorkers.

	PEERMUSIC CLASSICAL EUROPE: Komponisten: Charles Ives
		Schermerhorn's performance is a cautious one; despite indications of quicker allegros in the new edition, his are often not up to those of Bernstein or Thomas.
		I sense that these cautious tempos are in deference to the orchestra, to avoid too great a challenge, an impression bolstered by the Nashville Symphony's recent Carnegie hall performance, where the finale went much faster but the playing became quite sloppy.
		Because Kenneth Schermerhorn and his excellent Nashville band play Jonathan Elkus' critical edition, prepared on behalf of the Ives Society.

		For more than 20 years now, Kenneth Schermerhorn has been the closest thing Nashville has to a classical music celebrity.
		We'll provide a quick look at Schermerhorn's musical favorites — which, not surprisingly, he found extremely difficult to narrow down — preceded by a few of his favorite non-musical things.
		Schermerhorn, incidentally, was once able to visit Bayreuth, Germany, where Wagner created an opera house that still stages his music.

		Having embarked on a Hanson cycle for Naxos, Kenneth Schermerhorn and the Nashville Symphony now add Charles Ives, starting with a shotgun wedding of the inchoate Robert Browning Overture, composed between 1908 and 1912, followed by the folksy Second Symphony.
		First off, Schermerhorn uses the Society's scholarly edition -- the final version with a sprightlier tempo that Ives wanted in the second movement, "right" speeds in the finale, and a short dissonant tutti at the end (rather than Lenny-B's raspberry, which vulgarized Ives' curious but characteristic prank).
		And their Tennessee home, while amply resonant, cannot do for Schermerhorn's unit what tons of wood paneling used to do for the medium-sized Toronto Symphony, before Ontarians replaced Massey Hall with a glassy, shallow-sounding new facility.

		The single greatest virtue in Schermerhorn's work, for me, is orchestral tone that is never self-indulgent, but is rich and elegant as chocolate mousse.
		Although other recordings remain available, Bachianas Brasileiras (Naxos) is a welcome, budget-priced luxury, grouping these nine pieces, scored mainly for orchestra as well as soprano and cello ensemble, into a convenient, well-recorded three-disc set.
