SWR Classic
Dvořák: Symphonies Nos 7 & 8 (SWR Classic)
A potentially attractive coupling, quite well played but too low-key and lightweight. [RMo]
Grieg & Schubert: Piano Works (SWR Classic)
A tame, unadventurous account of Grieg’s concerto, lacking in dynamism, and an equally pedestrian rendering of Schubert’s great pianistic challenge [RMo]
Festive Sounds (SWR Classic)
A pleasant hour of music basking in a warmly resonant recording [MP]
Roger Norrington (conductor) Sacred Music (SWR Classic)
Choral masterpieces of the 19th century, in stirring performances [RWe]
Mozart: Piano Concertos (SWR Classic)
Michelangeli’s Mozart at its most ebullient, masculine and human [JW]
Anne-Sophie Mutter – Vivace (SWR Classic)
A revealing documentary sheds light on a superstar career [RMay]
Karl Böhm (conductor): The SWR Recordings (SWR Classic)
A rewarding collection [GT]
Ligeti: Complete Works for a Cappella Choir (SWR Classics)
This contribution to Ligeti’s centenary sheds a new light on the early work of this fascinating composer [GH]
From Jewish Life (SWR Classics)
A valuable boxed reissue from SWR’s vaults brings melancholy, vivacity and many disc premieres [JW]
Ligeti: Complete Works for a Cappella Choir (SWR Classic)
This music ranges from the avant-garde to pieces almost fit for cathedrals in the 1500s [JF]
