Royal Flemish Philharmonic, Philippe Herreweghe - Schubert: Symphonies No. 1, 3 & 4 (2015) [Hi-Res]

"... gives a brighter outlook on these earlier works and the generous acoustic clarifies lines and voices ... Herreweghe accordingly takes a vivacious approach to them, with pleasingly characterful woodwind solos ... those who have been waiting for Herreweghe to return to Schubert (or who are attracted by this particular coupling) need not hesitate."
- Gramophone

On this double album, Philippe Herreweghe and the Royal Flemish Philharmonic pay a superb tribute to three early symphonies by Schubert, works that are less well known and rarely recorded, delivered here with refinement, precision and sensitivity. Although these earliest symphonies are sometimes considered youthful works of a composer still learning his trade, they nonetheless attest to a genius of symphonic construction that few musicians could boast about while still in their teens.
