Released in 1970 by Universal International, this programme features the New Philharmonia Orchestra under the skilled baton of Wilfried Boettcher. This album showcases two lesser-known but richly rewarding symphonic works from the early Romantic era. Carl Maria von Weber’s Symphony No. 1 brims with youthful energy and lyrical charm, while Luigi Cherubini’s Symphony in D Major offers a masterful blend of classical structure and dramatic intensity. Boettcher and the orchestra deliver a polished and dynamic performance, breathing life into these hidden gems and highlighting their enduring brilliance.
