  • . . . his finest playing on disc to date. His tone has always been sumptuous, but, taking his cue from Henrik Wahlgrens serene oboe solo in the adagio, he has never sounded more expressive. This is raptly beautiful playing and the Leipzigers rise to the no less important orchestral parts. In the outer movements, and the Double Concerto, with Truls Mørk´s eloquent cello, Chailly brings symphonic rigour and high drama to Brahms´s scores. It is hard to think of recent recordings of these great works that match the splendour of sound and musical insight here. Superb.

  • Der sibirische Geiger Vadim Repin hat sich mit Johannes Brahms´ Violinkonzert an einen Meilenstein der Konzertliteratur gewagt. Seine überragende Interpretation mit dem Gewandhausorchester kann sich mit den Großen messen. 2009 hat erst ein Zwölftel hinter sich. Und doch kann man schwerlich den Gedanken loswerden, mit diesem Brahms-Album eine der schönsten Klassik-CDs des Jahres in Händen zu halten.
