Editor's info:
First and foremost, this double album enshrines the exemplary work of an ensemble whose designation 'Baroque orchestra' by no means limits its excursions into later repertories. Under the watchful eye of a gifted conductor, the 'Freiburgers' (and co.) offer us a profoundly renewed vision of the 'Ninth'. The 'Choral Fantasy' showcased one of Beethoven's most extraordinary talents: improvisation. Kristian Bezuidenhout has joined forces again with his concerto partners to let us experience this little-known score as if it had just been premiered then transcribed by Beethoven himself.

The Sunday Times:
it’s the Ninth that’s the revelation, thanks to the rightness of Heras-Casado’s tempos (never has the mighty first movement sounded so relentless), the intricate, incisive rhythms, the clarity that makes Beethoven’s revolutionary scoring endlessly startling (thrillingly prominent horns and bassoons), and the inspired soloists and chorus.

Christiane Karg (soprano), Sophie Harmsen (mezzo), Werner Güra (tenor), Florian Boesch (baritone), Kristian Bezuidenhout (fortepiano)
