Kletzki: Symphony No. 3 / Concertino for Flute

Dive into the captivating world of Paul Kletzki with this remarkable album, released by BIS Records in 2004. This collection showcases Kletzki's extraordinary talent as both a composer and a conductor, offering a profound exploration of his Symphony No. 3, 'In memoriam,' and his enchanting Concertino for Flute.

The Symphony No. 3, 'In memoriam,' is a powerful and evocative work, divided into four distinct movements. It begins with the intense and energetic 'Allegro agitato ed energico,' followed by the deeply moving 'Adagio molto.' The third movement, 'Allegro giocoso - Un poco meno mosso - Tempo I,' brings a playful and lively atmosphere, while the final movement, 'Moderato assai - Allegro con fuoco,' concludes the symphony with a fiery and dramatic flourish.

Complementing the symphony is the Flute Concertino, a delightful and expressive piece that highlights the flute's versatility and beauty. The three movements, 'Allegro con brio,' 'Molto cantabile ed espressivo,' and 'Allegretto scherzando, non troppo vivo,' each offer a unique and captivating musical experience.

Produced by Robert Suff, this album is a testament to Kletzki's enduring legacy and his significant contributions to the world of classical music. Whether you're a longtime fan of Kletzki's work or a newcomer eager to explore his compositions, this album is a must-listen, offering a rich and rewarding journey through the mind and music of a true master.

Paul Kletzki, born Paweł Klecki in Łódź, Poland, was a multifaceted musician whose life and career were marked by remarkable highs and profound challenges. A child prodigy on the violin, Kletzki began his musical journey at the age of nine and joined the Łódź Philharmonic at just fifteen. His path was significantly altered by the horrors of World War I and the subsequent rise of Nazism, which forced him to flee Germany and Italy. Despite these tumultuous events, Kletzki's career flourished, particularly in the post-war era, where he became renowned for his interpretations of Romantic orchestral music, including the works of Mahler, Tchaikovsky, and Berlioz.

Kletzki's own compositions, such as his poignant Third Symphony dedicated to the victims of Nazism, reflect his deep emotional response to the tragedies of his time. As a conductor, he led several orchestras with distinction, though none as a permanent music director. His legacy endures through his recordings, which continue to captivate audiences with their intensity and depth. Kletzki's life and work stand as a testament to resilience and artistic brilliance in the face of adversity.
