Askenazy and the Philharmonia produced a very good 6th Symphony in their previous cycle for Decca, and not a great deal has changed, except that in the Stockholm performance the tempi are all notably faster, giving the lie to the adage that conductors slow music down as they age. This lovely symphony, often neglected in concert programmes, is regarded as a masterpiece by many musicologists. In following the exultant 5th, it is drained of heroism, and it also reserves epic glory for the 7th Symphony. Yet it has fragile beauties of its own. Sibelius revered Palestrina, and the first movement, without key signature, is not really in D minor but in the Dorian mode (from D to D1 on the white notes of the piano). This movement begins on the middle and upper strings in an imitation of Renaissance polyphonic vocal writing, and more polyphony comes from the woodwinds in their many imitative passages.–John Miller
