'What sets this performance apart from most others are the comparative lightness of its orchestral and choral sonority, transparency of its texture and utter avoidance of stodgy sentimentality… In short this is a warmly recommended release'
- International Record Review
This recording marks the beginning of a three-volume series of Brahms's choral works, all performed by the Danish National Symphony Orchestra and Choir under its distinguished Principal Conductor, Gerd Albrecht.
The famous Danish Choir and Orchestra have assembled some of the most sought-after soloists around today for this recording, and produce a fresh, powerful account which makes a distinctive addition to the Brahms discography.
The Danish National Symphony Orchestra receives consistently good reviews for its Chandos recordings.
REVIEWS OF PREVIOUS ALBUMS BY THE ORCHESTRA:
'The Danish National Symphony Orchestra plays impeccably, and Chandos' warm, rich, recorded sound is very flattering and appropriate to the music.'
Fanfare on CHAN 9862 (Gade, Volume 1)
'…the disc can certainly be recommended for the spirited playing of the Danish orchestra…'
BBC Music Magazine on CHAN 9957 (Gade, Volume 2)
