Item Description
'THE' Brahms cycle of our time is back and now for the first time on blu ray high fidelity pure audio. It's the only one in genuine 24/96 HD This multi-award winning release was received tremendously internationally. What this format brings to the listener is a uniquely luxurious listening experience. It takes audio in its purest and uncompressed form, mastered onto a Blu-Ray disc, retaining all of its original sound range and character to deliver audio as it was meant to be heard - in its purest form. Following the 2011 landmark Beethoven cycle, Riccardo Chailly presents a recording of the complete Brahms symphonies and orchestral works including the overtures and Haydn Variations. Rarities include world premiere recordings of two piano intermezzi orchestrated by Paul Klengel (brother of the Gewandhaus' long-standing principal cellist Julius Klengel); the 9 Liebeslieder waltzes; the original first performance version of the Andante of Symphony No. 1 and the even rarer revised opening of the Fourth Symphony. Chailly has radically rethought his approach to these works, re-examining the scores and returning to the recorded interpretations of a generation of conductors alive during Brahms' lifetime, principally Felix Weingartner and one of his Gewandhaus predecessors Bruno Walter.
