Daniel Barenboim & Sir John Barbirolli - Brahms: Piano Concertos & Academic Festival Overture (2022) [Hi-Res]

November 15th will mark the 80th birthday of Daniel Barenboim, an anniversary overshadowed by his recently announced retirement because of illness. Here is a youthful recording of the two concertos of Brahms with John Barbirolli, finally available in both high resolution and immersive format! This album is an historical reference. Barbirolli was a massive influence on Barenboim, as he pointed out: 'As far as orchestral playing is concerned, I learned most of what I know from Barbirolli. (…) I mean that I learned how to learn. I learned how to study a score, I learned how to prepare'.
