(Trois Nocturnes)
By the time of this Royal Festival Hall concert in 1985, Sir Georg Solti and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra had cemented their reputation as a truly legendary partnership. Solti demonstrates his profound understanding of Mozartian style in a subtly nuanced account of the composer’s Symphony No.39, while he and the CSO’s virtuoso musicians bring out all the drama and emotion of Tchaikovsky’s thrilling Fourth Symphony.
