JEAN SIBELIUS

 

Symphony No 2, Pohjola's Daughter

 

London Symphony Orchestra / Sir Colin Davis

 

A high density DSD recording. Throughout his long career Sir Colin Davis has been a consistent champion of Sibelius's music. The release of Symphony No. 2 is the fourth title in his acclaimed cycle of the composer's symphonic works for LSO Live.

 

CONCERT REVIEWS:

"Thirty years after his Boston Symphony Orchestra recording of the Second Symphony - long regarded as a benchmark in this work - his enquiring mind is still finding subtly new

ways of guiding listeners through the composer's musical logic. Here there was a real feeling of progression from the fragmentary motifs of the opening movement to the

climatic 'big tune' of the finale" Daily Telegraph
