Brahms: Complete Symphonies, etc. (4CD) Bernstein & VPO This OIBP remastered edition features the acclaimed recordings of Bernstein and the Vienna Philharmonic, which won the Record Academy Award. Building on the success of their complete Beethoven cycle with the Vienna Philharmonic, these performances delve even deeper into the passionate aspects of the works. While the late Romantic tendencies may surprise listeners in today's era of historical performance practice, this interpretation, which empathizes with Brahms's emotional depths, embraces his complex and nuanced feelings, and vividly portrays the shifts in his emotions, still holds unparalleled persuasiveness and special impact. The Vienna Philharmonic's deeply passionate and warm sound, only achievable by this orchestra, is also a major attraction.
