Staatskapelle Berlin & Daniel Barenboim – Beethoven, Symphony No. 4

The Staatskapelle Berlin and its chief conductor Daniel Barenboim continue their symphonic Beethoven cycle with this recording of Beethoven’s Fourth Symphony. The cycle started with an acclaimed performance of the Ninth on Berlin’s Bebelplatz and goes on in the Lindenoper. Compared with the Third Symphony, the Fourth is more modest and traditional. The gentle harmony and placidity of this symphony prompted the French composer Hector Berlioz to comment about the second movement: “...the being who wrote such a marvel of inspiration... was not human.” Composer Robert Schumann likened the work to a “Greek maiden between two Norse giants.”
