Our Take

Irish NSO's rendition of Nielsen's Symphonies 2 & 3 gets the blood pumping like a shot of Jameson. The Irish National Symphony Orchestra takes us on a musical journey through the lush greens of Ireland, with each note as refreshing as a Guinness on a hot summer's day.

Symphony No. 2, "The Four Temperaments," is a rollercoaster of emotions, from the fiery choleric to the melancholic phlegmatic. The NSO's interpretation is as dynamic as a leprechaun's dance, with conductor Leaper leading the charge with precision and flair.

Symphony No. 3, "The Sinfonia Espansiva," is a true testament to the NSO's ability to capture the expansiveness of Nielsen's vision. The orchestra breathes life into every movement, from the ethereal opening to the jubilant finale.

Overall, Irish NSO / Leaper Nielsen / Symphonies 2 & 3 is a delightful showcase of the orchestra's prowess and Nielsen's genius. So, grab your shillelagh and get ready to be whisked away on a musical journey through the emerald isle. This album is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Cheers!
