Conductor Christoph König and the Solistes Européens, Luxembourg, have previously recorded Farrenc’s Second and Third Symphonies (8573706), released in April 2018. It was an ICMA Nominee, and received praise from Pizzicato: ‘These are well-paced, unfailingly musicianly and vital readings of two symphonies by Louise Farrenc, eminently serviceable to the French composer’s music.’ (★★★★★)
Further praises to the previous release: WTJU stated that the ‘Solistes Européens has a fine ensemble blend. Christoph König leads them in fiery, committed performances.’ AllMusic.com added that the album is ‘especially welcome. Symphonies by French composers, gender aside, were not common at this point, yet these are both accomplished works.’ (★★★★)
