  • Description

    Dohnányi’s Symphony No. 1 in D minor, Op. 9 was one of the Hungarian composer's early successes. Chief among the work's late Romantic influences is that of Brahms. Dohnányi treads a path of early Neo–Romanticism - a continuation of the 19th century style that avoids the expressionist violence of early 20th-century modernism. His authoritative treatment of the large orchestra is reminiscent of Mahler and Richard Strauss, teeming in details that are a hallmark of the quality of the work. His Symphonic Minutes, Op. 36 was written in 1933; the five short movements were incorporated into a larger ballet project. This album launches a new Capriccio series of recordings of Dohnányi’s works that remain less well known, but deserving of a wider audience.
