Edward GardnerAbout
Completed in February 1818, the Sixth Symphony was the first to be titled Große Sinfonie (grand symphony) by Schubert, a mark of his growing confidence in his work in the symphonic idiom.
The two overtures were composed at the same time as the sixth symphony, and are clearly modelled on the overtures of Rossini, whose music was all the rage in Vienna at that time. Recorded in Surround Sound, and released on hybrid SACD.
‘a cycle that will undoubtedly be worth following’ - Gramophone (on Vol.1, CHSA5234)
