Our Take

In the vast ocean of classical music recordings, there are few conductors who can truly be considered legends. Gunter Wand is one of those rarities, a titan of the podium whose interpretations have become the stuff of legend.

The Gunter Wand Edition Vol 17 is a delightful addition to any classical music lover's collection. This latest instalment features Wand conducting works by Beethoven, Brahms, and Schumann, showcasing his masterful touch and unrivalled understanding of these composers' music.

Wand's interpretation of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 is nothing short of electrifying. The sheer power and intensity he brings to this iconic piece is truly awe-inspiring. From the thunderous opening bars to the triumphant final movement, Wand's handling of the symphony is a masterclass in interpretation.

Brahms' Symphony No. 1 is another highlight of this album. Wand's deep affinity for Brahms' music is evident in every note, as he expertly navigates the intricate textures and emotional depth of this symphony. The result is a performance that is both intimate and grand, capturing the essence of Brahms' genius.

Schumann's Piano Concerto in A minor is the final gem in this musical treasure trove. Wand's collaboration with renowned pianist Maurizio Pollini on this concerto is a match made in classical music heaven. The delicate interplay between orchestra and soloist is expertly crafted, resulting in a performance that is both moving and exhilarating.

Overall, the Gunter Wand Edition Vol 17 is a must-have for any classical music aficionado. Wand's artistry and passion shine through in every note, making this album a true masterpiece.
