Robin Ticciati & SCO - Schumann: The Symphonies Live - The Independent

Authors of one of the finest Schumann symphony cycle on disc, Ticciati and the SCO brought their characterful, free-flowing Rhine to the Royal Albert Hall, sweeping the audience along in the eddying, dancing cross-currents of the Third Symphony – now glinting gold with sunlit horns, now a bubbling rush of strings. A joyous gesture of release, it was a natural counterweight to the tightly-wound grief and self-examination of Berg’s Violin Concerto.
