Brahms & Szymanowski - Symphonies No. 1
Johannes Brahms' Symphony No. 1 is presented alongside Karol Szymanowski's own first symphony and Violin Concerto No. 1, featuring the acclaimed soloist Janine Jansen. Brahms’s epic first symphony was seen as his ultimate tribute to the intimidating influence of Ludwig van Beethoven, while Szymanowski's, drenched in evocative Romanticism, is a powerful and emotionally intense composition.
