Grzegorz NowakAbout
This five CD set features a brand new recording of the complete set of Brahms' majestic symphonies (Nos 1-4). The set also includes a selection of Brahms' most popular shorter works, from the musical merriment of the Academic Festival Overture, to the emotional and volatile Tragic Overture and the masterly Variations on a Theme by Haydn.
The final disc is dedicated to the lyrical Serenade No.1 in D major, symphonic in conception but with a much lighter touch and full of whimsy
Grzegorz Nowak is the Principal Associate Conductor of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and has led the Orchestra on tours to Switzerland, Turkey and Armenia and in numerous appearances in London and throughout the UK. He has recorded an extensive range of key classical repertoire with the RPO, including Dvořák's Symphonies Nos 6-9, Shostakovich's Symphony No.5 and Mendelssohn's 'Scottish' and 'Italian' Symphonies.
“The RPO do sensuousness uncommonly well. The end result was rich yet delicate, with wonderfully liquid woodwind solos and an exquisite sheen on the strings.” - The Guardian
