This set is announced as “The Complete Works” of Edgard Varese, which, in the context of the listed comparisons, is certainly true. Moreover, with the Boulez recordings, made over the period 1977-83, now sounding their age and Nagano’s survey lacking sheer dynamic presence, Chailly sets new standards for an overall collection.

‘Complete’ requires clarification. Excluded are the electronic interlude, La procession du Verges, from the 1955 film Around and About Joan Miro (is this still extant?) and the 1947 Etude Varese wrote as preparation for his unrealized Espace project – material from which, according to Chou Wen-Chung, found its way into later works. Successively Varese’s pupil, amanuensis and executor, Professor Chou would appear ideally placed to advise on a project of this nature. Yet it does seem surprising to omit the Etude, completed, performed and apparently extant, while including Tuning Up, which Varese never realized as such, and Dance for Burgess, which does not exist in a definitive score.
