Notes and Editorial Reviews
The first and final movements of Brahms' Third Symphony contain some of the most dramatic music he was to compose, yet both end serenly and enclose two beautiful inner movements. The equally exquisite Serenade No.2, unusually scored for wind instruments, violas, cellos and double basses, was one of his own personal favourites and both receive superb performances under Bernard Haitink in the third part of his internationally acclaimed LSO Live Brahms cycle.
