This album brings together two towering Romantic symphonies, performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Edward Gardner.
Dvořák: Symphony No. 7 in D minor, Op. 70
Written in 1884 for the London Philharmonic Society, Dvořák’s Seventh Symphony is often regarded as his finest. It combines emotional depth, symphonic rigor, and subtle touches of Czech folk spirit. With its brooding power, lyrical second movement, and dramatic finale, this work stands as a testament to Dvořák's maturity and mastery.
Schumann: Symphony No. 2 in C major, Op. 61
Composed during a difficult period in Schumann’s life, his Second Symphony charts a personal journey from struggle to triumph. From the fanfare-like opening to the sublime slow movement and ultimately uplifting finale, the work captures the composer's resilience and expressive richness.
