J. Brahms – Symphonies Nos 2 & 3 (Mariss Jansons) (Hybrid SACD, Br-Klassik)

The two middle symphonies by Johannes Brahms form a particularly contrasting pair that exemplarily defines the radius of Brahms’ tonal language, which is characterized by both poetry and the greatest constructive rigor. The beauty of the Brahmsian Symphony comes to full bloom in these live recordings from the Musikverein Wien and the Herkulessaal in Munich under the baton of Mariss Jansons. The qualities of one of the best orchestras in the world are captured by the audiophile SACD process with the highest degree of naturalness.
