About
The symphonies of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach represent the ‘Empfindsam Style’ at its very best, seeking to express profound feelings in music, by such means as unexpected harmonies, chromatics, quick changes of dynamics and the sharp contrasting of melodic and virtuosic instrumental writing. Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra, so expertly conducted by Sakari Oramo, superbly performs these delightful six String Symphonies.

The emotional range is immensely concentrated...Ther ensemble is immaculate, their intonation superb - but above all their liveliness and panache is exactly what's needed for these exhilarating pieces.
June 2015
Unfettered personal feelings burst forth; calm mingling with turbulence and harmonic disruption leap off the page at every turn…Oramo is on his mettle here

This is an excellent recording and performance of the six String Symphonies Wq 182 by C.P.E. Bach. The first notes grab you, and the extremes of contrast from the Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra create by turns symphonic tumult and the lightest of finesse.
