This album, featuring the Brandenburgisches Staatstheater Frankfurt under the baton of Howard Griffiths, shines a spotlight on the symphonic works of Ferdinand Hiller, a once-celebrated but now lesser-known Romantic composer. Hiller’s Symphony op. 67 and Symphony in F minor are brought to life with vigor and sensitivity, showcasing his gift for lush orchestration, lyrical melodies, and dramatic contrasts. Griffiths’ meticulous direction highlights the depth and originality of Hiller’s music, while the orchestra delivers a performance that is both powerful and nuanced. This recording is a rediscovery of a forgotten gem, offering listeners a chance to explore the rich sound world of a composer who bridged the gap between Beethoven and Brahms.
