Info for Beethoven: Complete Symphonies, Vol. 2 (Nos. 5-8)

This is the second volume in the Copenhagen Phil's complete Beethoven symphonies set and the first complete Beethoven symphony series with renowned Chinese conductor Lan Shui. Featuring original brass and percussion instruments leading to a unique and compelling sound.

Contains the best loved of all his symphonies - the so-called 'Pastorale'.

The orchestra uses trombones that are from the same period as the ones that Beethoven, Mozart and Haydn were familiar with, leading to a beautifully blended sound that isn't usually heard in these symphonies.

“…nearly every phrase is faster and more penetrating and more energized than you have ever heard it before.” (Fanfare)
