Description
This second instalment in the ongoing complete Ferdinand Ries symphony cycle with the Tapiola Sinfonietta and conductor Janne Nisonen includes the composer's 4th and 5th symphonies. Although numbered as the composer's fifth, the D minor symphony dates from 1813 and was his second symphony to be completed. The symphony was Ries' debut with the London Philharmonic Society which was to be an important influence in his career for the next eleven years after he had settled in the city. The first performance of the symphony was a major success and, according to a review, 'This [symphony] is one of those works which announce the genius of its author.' Ries was being favourably compared to the likes of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. Ries' Symphony No. 4, Op. 110 was composed in London in 1818 but, for reasons unknown, did not achieve a similar success to that of his 5th Symphony.
