Schumann: Symphonies Nos. 2 & 4; Genoveva Overture / Gardiner, London Symphony

Following their award-winning Mendelssohn cycle, Sir John Eliot Gardiner and the London Symphony Orchestra embark on a new journey through the symphonies of Robert Schumann.

Gardiner feels the Schumann symphonies are criticised unfairly and with these recordings he is on a mission to dispel the cobweb of myths around these symphonic masterpieces.

-----

REVIEW:

The LSO respond with elan to the bracing textures, confounding the clichĂ© that Schumann “couldn’t orchestrate”. Gardiner chooses the 1841 version of the D minor work, No 4, which the LSO play as if discovering it anew.
