About

These live recordings bear witness to the close rapport between Robert Casadesus and Eugene Ormandy, two great transatlantic figures in the history of twentieth-century music and performance.

Born respectively in Paris and Budapest, these two musicians laid the cornerstone for their stellar careers in the post-war United States. Here they are heard with the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra in riveting interpretations of two masterpieces from the late romantic repertoire.

Though written only two years apart (1875 and 1877), Saint Saëns’ concerto and Tchaikovsky’s symphony reflect very different musical and mental universes. Casadesus and Ormandy bring them to life with fascinating sureness of style and unbridled expression.
