Brahms: The Symphonies
“The Brahms project with the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique in 2007 was a thrilling undertaking — a thorough reappraisal of Brahms’s sound world, both in terms of period instruments and a study of the surviving evidence of performance practice. So why then a second recording 18 years later? First, because these symphonies are evergreen – miracles at the time of their inception and super-challenging every time one encounters them. Second, because I sensed a need and a personal challenge to build on that seminal earlier experience and to extend its findings and interpretations to/in working with a modern instrument orchestra in search of a fresh synthesis of styles and approaches.” — John Eliot Gardiner. 3-CD digipack with 24pp booklet with a personal remark by John Eliot Gardiner and liner notes by Peter Quantrill (E/D) plus biographies of both the conductor and the orchestra.
