Mozart, W A - CATALOGUE-CD: Symphonies Nos. 38 & 41 - Jacobs, René
Freiburger Barockorchester / René Jacobs
Conducting the musicians of the Freiburger Barockorchester, René Jacobs offers us a chance to rediscover two symphonies of 'classic' status, originally released in 2007.
"... René Jacobs's credentials as a Mozart interpreter are impeccable, and his recordings of the Prague and Jupiter Symphonies issued last year were widely admired...anyone who wants highly energised, period-instrument accounts of these two great works won't go far wrong with these." Andrew Clements, The Guardian, 25 March 2010
"treasurable"
Piers Burton-Page, International Record Review, May 2010
"If you want all preconceptions as to how this music should sound given a thorough spring clean, then René Jacobs is your man."
Julian Haylock, Classic FM Magazine, June 2010
"a recording that is thought-provoking and always compelling."
David Threasher, Gramophone, August 2010
