About this product
The award-winning Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin has become one of the world's leading chamber orchestras on period instruments. These concerts reveal some of the foundations of Beethoven's genius, and capture vital performances from the 2020 SWR Schwetzingen Festival, the biggest radio festival for classical music in the world. Robert Schumann pointed out similarities between Méhul's First Symphony and Beethoven's Fifth, and these third and fourth concerts in the cycle also include a tempest by Holzbauer that precedes Beethoven's by half a century, plus the little-known Le portrait musical de la nature by Justin Heinrich Knecht, a work that also anticipates Beethoven's 'Pastoral' Symphony. The first and second concerts are also available on Naxos.

The award-winning Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin has become one of the world's leading chamber orchestras on period instruments. These concerts reveal some of the foundations of Beethoven's genius, and capture vital performances from the 2020 SWR Schwetzingen Festival, the biggest radio festival for classical music in the world. These first two concerts of four see Beethoven's revolutionary development through his first three symphonies set against C.P.E. Bach's novel orchestration, Mozart's pre-echo of a theme from the 'Eroica' Symphony, and Paul Wranitzky's richly narrative Grande Sinfonie caractéristique, a work banned by the Viennese authorities of the day. The third and fourth concerts are also available on Naxos
