Br:Jansons - Brahms: Symphonies 2/ 3

The two middle symphonies by Johannes Brahms form a highly contrasting pair of works, which define the radius of Brahms's musical language, equally marked by both poesy and the highest level of constructive stringency. The beauty of Brahmsian symphonic creativity comes to full fruition in these live recordings from the Musikverein in Vienna and the Herkulessaal in Munich under the direction of Mariss Jansons. The qualities of one of the world's best orchestras are captured in the highest fidelity by the audiophile SACD process.
