Our Take

Orchestre des Champs-Élysées and Philippe Herreweghe team up on this latest release, tackling Brahms' Symphony No.4 and Alto Rhapsody with gusto. From the opening notes of the symphony, it's clear that this ensemble means business - the string section is tight, the brass is bold, and the woodwinds bring a whimsical touch to Brahms' complex compositions.

But it's not all serious business here. Herreweghe injects a sense of playfulness into the mix, keeping things light and airy even during the most dramatic moments. The result is a symphony that feels fresh and engaging, with unexpected twists and turns that will keep listeners on their toes.

The real star of the show, however, is the Alto Rhapsody. Mezzo-soprano Sarah Connolly delivers a stunning performance, her rich, velvety voice soaring above the orchestral accompaniment. Her emotional delivery adds depth and complexity to Brahms' already intricate composition, making this a standout track on an already outstanding album.

Overall, this latest offering from Orchestre des Champs-Élysées and Philippe Herreweghe is a must-listen for any classical music fan. With their innovative interpretations and top-notch musicianship, they breathe new life into these timeless pieces. Brahms would be proud.
