Un Retrato, Vol. 1: Jascha Horenstein (Remasterizado 2022) [Live]

In this live recording, Jascha Horenstein leads the French National Radio Orchestra in a monumental performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. The powerful energy of the first movement transforms into the rhythmic vivacity of the second and the profound contemplation of the Adagio. The finale, with the celebrated "Ode to Joy," explodes into a choral celebration, thanks to the voices of Pilar Lorengar, Marga Hoeffgen, Josef Traxel, and Otto Wiener, supported with intensity by the orchestra. Horenstein's conducting balances formal rigor and emotional momentum, capturing the visionary essence of the work. The 2022 sound restoration restores clarity and warmth to a performance imbued with passion and grandeur.
