Background: This complete cycle of Beethoven's nine Symphonies is a landmark event for Decca, for Maestro Chailly, and for the Gewandhausorchester, where he has been Kapellmeister since 2005. These acclaimed performances were recorded live in the Gewandhaus over the last three years.

The cycle showcases the finesse and musicality of the legendary Gewandhaus Orchestra - from the Haydnesque elegance of the first two symphonies, to the grandeur and drama of the choral Ninth Symphony.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: capbox packaging - Awards-2011 Gramophone Editor's Choice 'These are proper studio recordings, not concert paraphrases. There is space around the sound, as there needs to be in Beethoven, complimented by an immediacy and clarity of detail that derives in large measure from the playing itself.'
