Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Franz Schubert with his enchanting Symphonies Nos. 4 & 6. Released on March 6, 2020, under Sony Classical/Sony Music, this album is a treasure trove of classical masterpieces that showcase Schubert's unparalleled compositional prowess.
The album opens with the lively "Ouvertüre im italienischen Stil, D. 590," setting the stage for the symphonies that follow. The "Little C Major" Symphony No. 6 in C Major, D. 589, is a delightful journey through four movements, each more charming than the last. From the serene Adagio to the spirited Presto of the Scherzo, Schubert's melodic genius shines brightly.
Contrastingly, the "Tragic" Symphony No. 4 in C Minor, D. 417, offers a darker, more intense experience. The dramatic Adagio molto - Allegro vivace of the first movement gives way to a somber Andante, a lively Menuetto, and a concluding Allegro that leaves a lasting impression.
