The fresh and youthful Schumann wrote the Spring Symphony, the sound of which nobody can better convey than Christian Zacharias with his vital and agile Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne. This latest release concludes its highly welcome new SACD recording of Schumann’s symphonies.

CD Review

You really feel that Zacharias and the lean, lithe Chamber Orchestra of
Lausanne get to what Schumann intended… flavoursome horns… athletic
strings.

April 2013

both performances are the equals of the Second and Fourth on the previous disc, their transparency of line helping hammer another nail into the coffin of the old trope that Schumann didn't know his orchestra from his elbow. As 'modern' interpretations these are ideal, although many will naturally remain loyal to great recordings of the past.
