Another strong conductor of Mozart's music.

This is a deeply affecting performance, one that is notable for its intimacy and warmth and sense of grace and also its understated, contemplative, very private approach to this most spiritual of music which takes on a devotional aspect in Ms. De Hoog's hands. Very, very impressive and perhaps the best I have heard since my modern references of Anne Gastinel, Jean-Guihen Queyras and Ophélie Gaillard.

This is a great performance of my favourite Glazunov Symphony. The Seventh contains one gorgeous melody after another. The colourful orchestrations are delivered with great panache by this splendid BBC orchestra. I LOVE it.
No, I don't have it, thanks for the message.fergus wrote:Seán wrote:
