Description:

A recording by the Berlin Philharmonic and Honorary Conductor Daniel Barenboim to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Faure's death Conductor and pianist Daniel Barenboim and the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, who understand each other perfectly. Barenboim made his debut as a pianist with the Berlin Philharmonic 60 years ago and conducted his first concert with the orchestra in 1969. This recording commemorates the great French composer Gabriel Faur, who will celebrate the centenary of his death in 2024, with a well-received program performed at the Berlin Philharmonic, home of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, in early June 2023. It has also been almost 50 years since Barenboim first recorded Franck's symphonies with the Orchestre de Paris. Now he expresses a new interpretation with the Berlin Philharmonic. The hymnic and monumental sound of the symphony stands out, combining the spirit of Beethoven with French elegance.The virtuosos of the Berlin Philharmonic's woodwind section, Albrecht Mayer (oboe), Emmanuelle Pajou (flute), and Dominique Vollenweber (chor anglais), join the recording.
