Symphony No. 4
01. I. Bedächtig, nicht eilen
02. II. In gemächlicher Bewegung, ohne Hast
03. III. Ruhevoll, poco adagio
04. IV. Wir geniessen die Himmlischen Freuden. Sehr behaglich
This recording from 2005 demonstrates how Roger Norrington applied findings about historic performance practice to a modern symphony orchestra. This resulted in the world-famous “Stuttgart Sound”, which imbued even late romantic works with a particular, individual timbre.
