![Davis,Colin / Lso - Sibelius: Symphonies Nos. 4 & 7 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/17ab0c30-f5fb-4d8b-b175-dc5a6417d33b.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
What makes Davis's Sibelius compelling is that he manages to have it both ways. He gives these fine players the encouragement to turn individual passages into moments of spine-tingling magic... But he never loses sight of the bigger objective, which is to pull together, bit by bit, the seemingly disparate themes... I doubt whether I shall ever hear an orchestra and conductor achieve a closer rapport in Sibelius. (BBC Radio 3). InchOne of the finest performances of Sibelius's Seventh ever on disc.Inch (Classic FM). InchMature wisdom and beautiful playing.Inch (The Times).
