Kurt Sanderling was one of the great Brahms conductors and many who believe his recordings, especially this cycle from Dresden in 1971-72 is among the greatest ever! Like Karajan, he had a great sense of the musical line, and like Giulini he gave has musicians space to create their own parts organically with their own personalities shining through, but most importantly one immediately gets the sense from the first note, that Sanderling already hears the last note and knows exactly how he intends to get there.
A thrilling Brahms cycle played by Germany's greatest orchestra under the baton of a legendary conductor. Do not confuse this EURODISC set with Kurt Sanderling's later, less successful Brahms cycle on Capriccio. This is the one to get; it's just one more proof of the fact that there's no relationship between quality of performance and price. Even if you already have a decent selection of Brahms symphonies, you can afford to add this terrific set to your collection.
