Twyla Robinson (soprano), Karen Cargill (mezzo), John MacMaster (tenor) & Gerald Finley (bass) London Symphony Chorus & Orchestra, Bernard Haitink “Haitink has not slackened with age. Quite the opposite: he has taken on board the swifter speeds of
the period instrument movement and some of its more invigorating sounds, too... The concluding Symphony
No 9 that followed was simply tremendous. Haitink has managed to reinvigorate his Beethoven without losing
any of his old authority or depth. The opening movement rose to Olympian climaxes of awesome power. The slow movement plumbed depths of emotion while keeping the melody flowing … The LSO itself played for Haitink at the peak of its powers. To have such warmth of sound combined with clarity at every layer up and down the orchestra was a remarkable achievement" Financial Times | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
