Vaughan Williams Symphony No.5 (39')

Andrew Manze conductor
Sebastian Bohren violin

A morning mist cloaks a rural landscape and two horns call softly in the distance. From the very opening of Vaughan Williams’ Fifth Symphony, you know you’re destined for something vast and beautiful. When Andrew Manze recorded it with the Orchestra, one critic described the result as “unsurpassed, and quite possibly unsurpassable”. Today, he brings the same magic touch to the neglected music of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (Elgar was a fan) and Mendelssohn’s hugely popular violin concerto, with Sebastian Bohren as soloist.
