Peter Cossé: In Sanderling's manner and approach to the musical argument one can recognize something of the astringent, tough and simultaneously cool-headed but passionate interpretations of Mravinsky. I don't mean by this that Sanderling stood in any sense in a pupil teacher relationship with his colleague, but one cannot to notice a clear affinity of thinking between the two. In order to shape effectively such a large-scale, emotionally laden work as Rachmaninov's Second Symphony, necessary to begin with a sympathetic overall view and bring the broad outlines of the strange but fascinating musical landscape into relief. A secure, experienced guide is indispensable with Rachmaninov, whether in the popular piano concertos or the symphonies, which still sometimes meet with critical disapproval. The accusations of long-windedness sometimes levelled against this major work of Rachmaninov's sorrowful muse, which he composed in 1906-08, arise above all from a dangerous misunderstanding of a foreign, or, if you will, Slavic timescale. One has simply to surrender to this music. Its pathos, its ferocity, its elegiac world view, the powerful outbursts in the finale, will be properly appreciated only when the listener forgets all his prejudices and is prepared to open himself up completely to an expansive new world. Kurt Sanderling and the Leningrad players showed miraculously in 1956 that this meeting in Berlin provided a genuine encounter with Rachmaninov.
