Bamberger Symphoniker, Jonathan Nott – Mahler: Symphony No. 4 (2008) SACD ISO

The Bamberg Symphony Orchestra, under their Principal Conductor Jonathan Nott, present another release in their Mahler Symphonic Series. Their recording of the Symphony No. 1 (TUDOR7147) was a Gramophone Editors Choice and this glorious release is highly recommended. Soprano Mojca Erdmann sings the beautiful setting of poems from “Das Knaben Wunderhorn” in the final movement.

“Jonathan Nott… moves swiftly but unhurriedly through the woodland terrors of the first movement development, keeps the scrapings of Brother Death shrill and headlong in the Scherzo, and makes sure all dynamics keep their place in the long lines of the great slow movement, aided by the superlative Bamberg first oboe.” – BBC Music Magazine, December 2008

”Having recorded fine if not world-beating accounts of the Fifth and First Symphonies, Jonathan Nott and the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra continue their Mahler cycle with a fourth that can rank with the finest….The SACD sound, though, is the best this work has yet received – setting the seal on a likely bench-mark recording.” – International Record Review, December 2008
