Album Notes & Community Reviews

Captured just as the recording industry shifted to electrical technology, this interpretation of the composer's programmatic ode to nature benefits from drastically improved clarity and string tone. The conductor expertly balances the score's gentle, rustic lyricism with the intense dynamic outbursts of the famous storm movement. The release signifies the rapid maturation of the commercial symphonic catalog.
