Description
“This beautiful performance deserves to win many new friends for Dvořák’s most Brahmsian symphony. Davis’s love of this music shines out of every bar.” (Gramophone)
“culminating in a towering account of the finale, which unlike many, here emerges as a fully satisfying conclusion”
“More successfully than any other recording, Davis captures the slow movement’s elusive heart of darkness.”
