Sibelius: Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 43

George Szell (2024 Remastered, Amsterdam 1964)

1 disc(s) - 4 track(s)
Total length: 00:41:45

 

"Where others have finished rehearsing, we are just beginning". George Szell's words serve as a window into the essence of his work and artistic standards. Yet, they alone cannot capture the entirety of the man. A second quote deepens this understanding: "One must think with the heart and feel with the mind."

It's clear that flawless technique, combined with an intimate understanding of the subject, falls short without the presence of emotion. George Szell possessed the triumvirate of knowledge, technique, and emotion. Undoubtedly, this trinity elevated his interpretation of Sibelius' Second Symphony to be recognized among the finest, a status it continues to uphold.
