Brahms / Bamberger Symphoniker / Hrusa- Brahms: Sym No 2 Op 73 D Maj / Dvorak: Sym 7 Op 70 (CD)
The Bamberger Symphoniker's collaboration with Tudor has evolved in cycles. It began with Joachim Raff's ouvre, a pioneering step into overlooked repertoire. Then stepped up to the Greats with Schubert's symphonies: the first recording to follow the new Schubert edition was enthusiastically hailed as a refreshing new departure interpreted with historical awareness. Reaching for the stars under the aegis of Jonathan Nott, the scores of Gustav Mahler then entered the Bamberg Konzerthalle. That whole cycle has won countless prizes and awards, becoming a milestone of Mahler discography. The next step? Staying in Vienna with symphonies by Johannes Brahms while remaining true to Gustav Mahler's Bohemian homeland with AntonÃn Dvorák. The Bamberger Symphoniker and Jakub Hrusa's cycle of the four Brahms symphonies and Dvorák's last four symphonies is the first recording to give an overview of their extraordinary universe and cast light on their musical affinity, in a vivid soundscape with a contemporary pulse.
