To celebrate its 120th anniversary, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra is giving away a symphony every day. Yes, please. Here’s the selection:
Franz Schubert - Symphony no. 8 ‘Unfinished’
Ludwig van Beethoven - Symphony no. 2
Felix Mendelssohn - Symphony no. 4 ‘Italian’
César Franck - Symphony in D minor
Gustav Mahler - Symphony no. 1
Antonín Dvořák - Symphony no. 8
Camille Saint-Saëns - Symphony no. 3 ‘Organ’
Jean Sibelius - Symphony no. 2
Anton Bruckner - Symphony no. 8
Johannes Brahms - Symphony no. 2
What a nice surprise. Since you asked my opinion, I’d download the Schubert, the Dvořák, and definitely grab the Sibelius—one of my favorites, period. Mahler, Bruckner, and Saint-Saëns would be next if I had to choose. And if you get 6, you might as well get the rest… [via classical convert]
