About

Sir John Eliot Gardiner leads the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique in performances of Schubert's Symphony no.5 in B flat Major, D485, and Brahms's Serenade no.2 in A major, op.16 – recorded live in concert at the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam.

In Serenade no.2 a 20-year-old Brahms chooses to omit violins, creating an unusually dark sound, while the lively style of Schubert’s Symphony no.5 seems to reflect the composer’s youthful exuberance.
