“In extremely elaborate readings, of great sound beauty, Jordi Savall gives us a captivating start to this cycle” – Christophe Huss
Reviews
There’s a gritty Sturm und Drang quality to the opening of the Seventh and I like the way Savall keeps the Allegretto moving yet still retains its nobility. The punchy Allegro con brio finale is hardly Wagner’s ‘apotheosis of the dance’ but is instead full of vigour and it really stings, taken at the same tempo as Norrington and John Eliot Gardiner, but the playing feels more alive, more vital. ... There is genuine elation in the ‘Ode to Joy’, aided by the thrusting young chorus La Capella Nacional de Catalunya... Savall’s may well have just become my favourite period-instrument Beethoven cycle of them all. Mark Pullinger (Recording of the Month)
