5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful and Inspired Brahms, 7 Nov 2003
By Brummy21 (Worcester, UK) - See all my reviews
It is difficult to concentrate on writing this while I listen to Jochum's Brahms 1st which just sweeps you along with its inspired conducting, wonderful orchestral playing and brilliant sound. These Jochum performances of three of Brahms' four symphonies, together with the Academic Festival and Tragic overtures, are vintage 1970s Kingsway Hall recordings, remastered on a 2CD bargain price issue from EMI. And what a bargain !

Eugen Jochum, steeped in the Germanic tradition, knows exactly how he wants these symphonies to sound and the London Philharmonic Orchestra rise to the occasion with playing they have probably never bettered, with producer Christopher Bishop giving them a sound to match.

A dramatic First Symphony is followed by a wonderfully lyrical Second and a warm and weighty Third. What a pity then, that to complete the Jochum Brahms Symphony set you will have to buy another 2CD bargain EMI issue to get the Fourth, but coupled with a far less inspiring Brahms German Requiem and Schicksalslied, from Klaus Tennstedt.

Still, don't let that put you off these 2CDs of inspired Brahms at almost a giveaway price. This set has replaced my Bruno Walter discs as my first choice listening for these Brahms symphonies - there can be no higher praise !
