A masterpiece that combines passion and elegance.
Abbado conducts the Vienna Philharmonic and records the complete Hungarian Dances.
This performance maintains the passion of folk rhythms while layering the soft sound characteristic of the Vienna Philharmonic. Abbado's commanding skills shine through, and wildness and refinement blend exquisitely. This is a masterpiece that brings out the most approachable side of Brahms.
