- Third instalment in Schubert’s ongoing Complete Symphonies series by Jan Willem de Vriend and the
ResidentieOrkest The Haag.
- A highlight in the series as this volume is entirely devoted to the Ninth Symphony, Schubert’s last one,
also known as“The Great” for its imposing size.
- Previous volumes have been welcomed by critic. On Vol.1, Pizzicato: … a promising start; MusicWeb:
Well recordedand performed with a good deal of panache. On Vol.2: Fanfare: … the performances with
their odd combination oddelicacy, decisiveness and drive, really work. Luister: … two early symphonies,
fresh and full-bodied, with all the echoesof Mozart and Haydn.
