If not the most adventurous of composers, and in his later years over-conservative, Gade in his youth certainly had his moments. his inventiveness is evident in all four symphonies presented here, albeit in very different ways. The Sixth (1856-7) is perhaps the most perfect, Classical in design although with a minatory feel suggestive at times of middle-period Haydn. If it stays within its own clearly defined harmonic and stylistic limits, the First, Third and Fifth do not.
No 1 (1842), based on an old ballad and incorporating his own earlier setting of it, is bright and full of life: no wonder Mendelssohn and the Leipzig audience were enchanted.
The Third (1846-7) is a different proposition, more Romantic in tone, its first movement too much so causing the composer to replace it with a less radical opening span (the Presto tempo marking of which must still have raised a few eyebrows). The original Andante – Allegro energico is included here in its first recording, proving a fine if turbulent sonata Allegro.
The Fifth (1852) has a Mendelssohnian poise and grace plus one startling – if ultimately stillborn – innovation: the piano as an orchestral instrument. The Fifth is definitely not a concerto, but a true symphony with an extended keyboard part, sometimes as soloist, sometimes as colouristic device. The performances are all very nicely drawn, the First and Fifth particularly so.— Gramophone Classical Music Guide
