Editor's info:
Frans Brüggen first turned his attention to the music of Beethoven’s Nine Symphonies in the 1980s, using period instruments. Now, his quest undimmed, he returns to the glories of Beethoven’s orchestral music for a new cycle being issued in a sumptuous hybrid SACD box set on Glossa. Likewise undimmed is the rapport he shares with his orchestra for one of classical music’s greatest challenges by way of concert performances: Brüggen has long distanced himself from studio recordings.

GRAMOPHONE 01/2013
"Brüggen's message, interpreted from uncorrupted texts, gets through, every repeat except one (in the third movement of the Seventh) observed. But he reserves judgement about Beethoven's metronome markings...Brüggen strips (the Ninth) of the overbearing bombast encrusted across generations...This is Brüggen's voyage to the vortex of Beethoven's last symphony. Go with him for a rare emotional encounter."

THE SUNDAY TIMES 10/03/2013
"What makes these new readings so rewarding is the depth and breadth of his conception of Beethoven’s sound world, combined with the clarity of period instruments. Older conductors achieved this with modern instruments, but Brüggen’s accounts of the purely orchestral symphonies have uncommon integrity."
