Royal Philharmonic Orchestra & New Philharmonia Orchestra, Norman Del Mar & Vernon Handley “Like Handley, Del Mar makes sense of the symphony's unusual structure (the finale is a fierce scherzo positioned between a dark introduction and elegiac epilogue) while allowing one to savour more of the details. The result remains the most emotionally potent on disc. Note, for instance, how warmly the New Philharmonic strings sing their opening cantilena at the beginning of the slow movement. And although it is not as graceful as Handley, Del Mar brings far more character and incident to the finale's scherzo section.” Gramophone Magazine, December 2007 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
