¡Mendelssohn: Symphony No. 1 & Schumann: Symphony No. 4
¡Thomas Hengelbrock (conductor)
Description
[Machine Translation] Conductor Thomas Hengelbrock has been the principal conductor of the prestigious North German Radio Symphony Orchestra since the fall of 2011, and has created a sensation in the German music world with his excellent performances. The first recording project with the North German Radio Symphony Orchestra is this album of two German Romantic symphonies by Schumann and Mendelssohn, recorded in March 2011. Under Hengelbrock's baton, the orchestra's light and colorful woodwinds, the lively articulation of the opposing string parts, and the three-dimensional and transparent orchestral sound all come together to transform the massive and renowned North German Radio Symphony Orchestra into a completely new super orchestra. The way in which the profoundly renowned North German Radio Symphony Orchestra has been transformed into a completely new super orchestra is truly astonishing. In Symphony No. 1, which was written when Mendelssohn was 15 years old, the youthful brushstrokes and the lively tone are beautifully articulated in a superlative performance, and the performance is so exceptional that it greatly enhances the value of this unknown work. Schumann's Symphony No. 4 is performed in the first draft of the composer's first inspired version, dramatically sounding the work's fantastical romanticism.
