| The brooding hero |
|
| Symphonies No. 3 and 8 are not to be missed: underneath the bursting energy of the first movement of the Eroica, Kuhn unfolds a gentle wistfulness, taking the funeral march to an unheard-of dimension. Whether it's the tragic tone of the Eroica or the cheerfully stubborn, ironically broken character of the Eighth: Gustav Kuhn inspires his bright and blossoming orchestra to a racy, focused, simply brilliant performance, from the first to the last note. A must-have! |

| Hearing Schumann! That was the underlying intention for these recordings of the composer’s four symphonies. And the result is a wonderfully intense double album. |
