私が感じるディーリアスの音楽とは何処までも角が無く、憂いまでも丸くて情景を音楽で現している事だと思う。目をつぶって聞いていると目前に情景が浮かぶのである。非常に判りやすい音楽、それが魅力である。

☆待ちに待ったディーリアスの音源がやっとまとまって発売された。イギリス近代音楽の常連である
ヴォーン・ウィリアムスやエルガー・ホルストなどの音源は既にボックスセットなどで安価にどんどん
発売されている中で、どういう訳なのか、ことディーリアスに関しては全く発売されず、ファンとして
一体どうなってるんだ！と一人で憤っていた。
たまに出されることがあっても、それは他の作曲家と混合での発売だったりして、やっぱり人気がなく
これはもうだめかなと半場諦めかけていた時にこのボックスがようやく出た。
全１８枚組とはすごい数ではあるのだが、タイトルを見ていてそういえばディーリアスの生誕１５０年
だったかとこちらもあらためて思い出したわけである。
しかしながら記念すべき年にも関わらず今の音楽界の現状を見て、ディーリアスにとって今年は余り
新録音に期待が持てない状況にあるのではないか。というのも今まで支えていてくれたディーリアスの
使徒ともいうべき指揮者がもう軒並み居なくなってるからなのだ。
病気がちだったメレディス・デーヴィス、そしてChandos期待の星リチャード・ヒコックスそして
ディーリアス演奏に関しては地味だが安定した演奏を聞かせてくれた指揮者ヴァーノン・ハンドリー、
最後のディーリアンであるチャールズ・マッケラスまでも居なくなってしまい、残っているのはNaxosと
ダットンレーベルのイギリス音楽（Epoc）で活躍しているデビッド・ロイド・ジョーンズと新たに
Chandos所属になったアンドリュー・デーヴィスの二人くらいになった為だ。
全くさびしい生誕１５０年に希望も少なくなった時にこの嬉しいニュースが飛び込んできたのだ。
古い録音ではあるがこのＥＭＩ企画はオールドファンには忘れ難い録音が集められている。
今では入手困難な内容も含まれておりLP時代からのディーリアスファンの方にはこれ等の再発を永らく
心待ちに待ち望んでいた方も多くおられる事だろう。
１９５０年代の終わり頃に英EMIレーベルがCBC（コロンビア）からサー・トーマス・ビーチャムを迎え
彼のお得意のレパートリーをどんどん録音していったのだが、得意とするディーリアスに関しても生誕
１００年に向けビーチャムの選曲の下に録音が開始されていた。ビーチャムにとって新規まき直しとも
いうべきステレオ録音ということでビーチャムも相当力が入り計画を進めていたのだが、結果として
録音は惜しくもビーチャムは２．５枚分のディーリアスの録音だけを残して記念すべきディーリアスの
生誕１００祭の前年に亡くなってしまた。支えの居ない生誕１００年祭はRPOのビーチャムの後継者
ルドルフ・ケンペが急遽代役となったりして処理されて乗り切ったものの生誕１００年祭以降には
ディーリアスへの関心は急速に失われていった。
しかしながら逆にビーチャムというディーリアス演奏の絶対的な権威者がいなくなったことで、
しばらくして新しい動きが見られるようにもなってきた。いわゆる新世代の登場である。
ビーチャムしか出来なかったディーリアスの演奏の束縛から離れ、新たなディーリアス演奏を残したい
という動きだ。
時も今やステレオ録音時代突入という事もあって企画されたのがここに入っているEMI録音の数々なのだ。
当時には既に頭角を現してきていた指揮者も居た。例えばハレ管のジョン・バルビローリだったが彼も
来日前に惜しくも２．５枚のLPを残して亡くなってしまった。新時代のキャストはまず１９６０年の
ディーリアスの生誕１００年祭で代役としてオペラ【村のロメオとジュリエット】を演奏したメレディス・
デービス。彼は同オペラの決定盤の録音を始めとして、オペラ【フエニモアとゲルダ】や【レクイエム】
そして【田園曲】【ヴァイオリン協奏曲】【二重協奏曲】などの録音を残している。
一方でイギリスで【レクイエム】を再演するなど台頭してきた合唱指揮者のチャールズ・グローブスを
起用して、決定盤といわれる【人生のミサ】【海流】【シナラ】【高い丘の歌】【生命の踊り】【日没の歌】
【アラベスク】、オペラ【コアンガ】【パリ】【おとぎ話】【北国のスケッチ】【夏の歌】などを録音。
しかし、やがて病気でグローブスやデービスなどが次々と体調を崩して続行がだめになっていくとやっと
起用されたのがヴァーノン・ハンドリー。
彼を使って劇音楽【ハッサン】全曲、と管弦楽曲などをLP二枚分録音などしている。
ついでにといっては失礼だがヒコックス（ＥＭＩ時代）も一部参加している。
そうこうしているうちにこのプロジェクトは自然解散となったのだが、今回の録音はステレオ録音による
ディーリアスシリーズを世の中に問うた記念すべきシリーズの総集編ともいえる。
ステレオ初期のビーチャムの録音も全部ではないが含まれていて、サージェントの指揮したチェロ協奏曲
（デュプレの名演）も含まれている。惜しくも亡くなった巨匠バルビローリの遺作とでもいうべき名演
【アパラチア】なども含まれているのがうれしい。
しかし幾分オールスター的なまとめ方にならざるを得ず、多少中途半端な編成になっているのが気に
なってしまうが。これは曲によっては絶対この人の演奏でないと、というファンもいる為、絞りきるのは
難しいところだったのだろう。何よりも曲目の重複を避けるためだろうかそれぞれの指揮者に花を持たせる
べく選曲されており、完璧なディーリアス全集を望む方にはやはり過去のCDをこつこつ集めていただく他は
ない。最終的にはこのEMIのプロジェクトは未完で終わってしまったのだが、理由はいろいろあろうが、
ＣＤの時代になったことによるマイナーレーベルの台頭によるものと、この時期には新興レーベルから
マッケラス（Argo）やフェンビー(ユニコーン）などの演奏が矢継ぎ早に発売されたことにもよる。
ＢＢＣ放送録音などからもノーマン・デル・マーによるディーリアスのオペラ３作も発売された。
これは是非再発していただきたい録音だ。
今回のボックスで特に歓迎すべき再発はM・デーヴィスによる【二重協奏曲】とヴァーノン・ハンドリー
による劇音楽【ハッサン】全曲だろう。落穂ひろい的に購入しても十分お釣りおつりがくる価格には非常に
満足できる。ワンセットは手元に置いておきたい。（余計なことだが、、）
追記：ディーリアンとして、先程述べたBBC放送録音によるノーマン・デル・マー 指揮による
ディーリアスの３つの歌劇【イルメリン】【赤毛のマルゴー】【魔法の泉】の復活を望む。
SonyとしてもCBS時代のビーチャムのディーリアスの録音集大成のセット物は再発を望む。
そして英ユニコーンレーベルにあるディーリアスシリーズ。
この中にはエリック・フェンビーの遺産というタイトルで発売された印象深いジャケット
のすばらしい２枚組のものがある。（是非オリジナルで再発を望む）でなければ７枚組の
セットでも可。
又、英Chandosのディーリアス（故ヒコックスと故ハンドリーのもの）も再発されることを
切に望む。生誕１５０年ですから無理して欲しいとファンとしては切に望む。今の世の中
あと５０年は生きられる保障がないから、、、

他のレビューワーの方がディーリアスの録音史的なものも含め愛情を持ってお書きになっているが、蛇足ながら私的感想を付け加えると。
ディーリアスをはじめて知ったのは、40年くらい前に購入した故バルビローリが最晩年にEMIに録音した管弦楽作品集のレコードであった、その時に「春初めてのカッコーを聞いて」などに感銘を受けたが、そのときは印象派の影響を受けたイギリスの作曲家程度の印象しかもっていなかった。それを根本的に変えたのが、この中にも入っているニーチェのツアラトストラのテキストをもとに作曲した「人生のミサ」である。Rシュトラウスの交響詩よりもはるかに音楽的に豊かな世界が広がる。山々のなかを静にホルンが呼応しあう場面、自然の中を乙女たちが歌い踊る場面、幻想的で旋律美豊かな大作である。かつて初出の時のレコードを持っていて、いつかCDで買いなおそうと思っており、このBOXは全くよいタイミングであった。
この中に入っていない代表的な録音に、ビーチャム（ブリッグの定期市、フロリダ組曲等ここではヒコックスの演奏で入っている）やバルビローリの管弦楽集（一部入っているが）等があるが、他のレビューワーの方も言っておられる様に、各演奏家に目配りをきかせ平等に集めたものと考えればよく。いずれにしてもこれだけのもの（オペラ、バイオリンソナタ等の室内楽等も入っている）は他に望めない。
デュ・プレのチェロ協奏曲も入っているのもうれしい。かつてレコードで購入したときはエルガーとのカップリングとなっており、かつては何となく取り留めのない音楽だな、と思っていたのが、中年の今となってみると、この夕暮れの穏やかな起伏の世界がとてもよい。

Mostly terrific.

This Delius treasury is mostly terrific such as
Groves Koanga (wonderful sound and very alive performance), Song of the High Hills, Sea Drift, North Country Sketches Lebenstanz, Cynara, Songs of Sunset, an Arabesque,
Hickox Brigg Fair, Florida,
Barbarolli Appalachia is beautiful and sensitive but see below also
Beecham Paa Vidderne, presentation on a Village Romeo and Juliet,
Meredith Davies Requiem, Idyll, Double Concerto,
Sargent Songs of Farewell, Cello Concerto, Song Before Sunrise,
Handley In a Summer Garden, 2 Pieces for Small Orchestra, Eventr, Hassan,
Eric Fenby's presentation.
Also includes Eric Fenby arrangements, violin sonatas and string quartet, cello sonata and many smallscale vocal, choral, orchestral and instrumental works.
Some recordings here are good but not terrific so here is a very brief list of eight alternatives:
a Village Romeo and Juliet. Beecham is better
Violin Concerto, I prefer Philippe Djokivic George Tintner Naxos.
Mass of Life Mark Elder and Beecham are also good.
Piano Concerto. Try Andrew Davis cond on Chandos
Paris Hickox or Groves. EMI.
Appalachia Mackeras. Decca.
Eventyr Andrew Davis. Chandos.
Sea Drift Hickox Chandos.
Beecham Delius is always terrific.
However most of the box is terrific.

Un recopilatorio delicioso

Una recopilación de la obra de Delius que aún estoy paladeando. Grabaciones con buena calidad y dirección en un box que reúne un total de 18 CDs. Para los que quieran introducirse en la obra de este compositor y ahondar en ella, como es mi caso. Recomendable y con un precio muy bueno.

Much better than I expected...a great bargain!

I bought this box set mostly on a whim: the combination of the low price (for 18 CDs) coupled with the fact I really knew only a little of Delius (the "hits", so to speak) and the fact I was ordering a few other box sets at the same time almost made this a filler. Worst case, I'd wasted a few bucks; best case, I had a few new CDs to put into regular rotation if I liked them. Going in to this box, looking over the contents, I realized I knew less than a tenth of the material. For someone who loves classical music, I thought this was a bit embarrassing, so I started working through the CDs one at a time. I wasn't sure what to expect: would this be music I'd listen to once, then file away? Would it be interesting but not good enough to bear repeating? Or would I find the gems I always hope to find, but seldom do?
Well, I found gems. Delius had, for me, always been tied to a few pieces recorded by Thomas Beecham, showing up on a variety of different LPs. If pushed, I am not sure I could confidently have named more than five of his works. So, listening to these CDs was relevatory: here was music that seemed fresh, interesting, and really attractive! Spanning his entire life's work, these CDs take you from early works through to late, choral through orchestral, light to heavy. The performances are really good: these are all done by top-tier orchestras, choirs and conductors. The recordings are superb.
The amazing thing, as I worked through all the CDs over a number of evenings, was how varied Delius' output was. There's something here most people will like, without being too avant garde or requiring particular tastes. Some of this music is from movies, some from the concert hall. It's a smorgasbord of interesting pieces, coming at you one after another. While there may not be a blockbuster hit here, there's nothing worth ignoring, either. This is all good, solid entertaining music, played well, and there's the odd gems that I will certainly revisit many times.
For me, this was probably the biggest surprise of the past year of buying CDs: I was mostly ignorant of Delius (much to my shame now) and I've now discovered an artist worthy of more attention. If you have never heard Delius' music, or, like me, know only a little of it, this box is a wonderful discovery and one you won't be disappointed in!
