The second instalment in Sir Colin Davis's new LSO Live Sibelius cycle follows hot on the heels of the first critically-acclaimed release featuring the Third and Seventh Symphonies. Sibelius was one of the most gifted and innovative symphonists who created music of astonishing beauty and luminosity. His Fifth Symphony is a breathtaking voyage that culminates in a resplendent finale, whilst the Symphony No 6 is more subtle, mysterious and refined to perfection.
CD REVIEWS
'stunning ... Flawless committed playing of the LSO, but what's really remarkable is the sense of space that Davis brings to the music - you can hear every note in the orchestral texture ...'
DISC OF THE MONTH
Classic FM Magazine (UK), Aug 2004
'This LSO Live Sibelius/Davis series is turning out very well indeed. In the Fifth the sense of growth, of many facets all belonging to an organic whole, is outstanding ... [the Sixth Symphony] is an exemplary performance ... Strongly recommended'

'[Sir Colin Davis] brings a lifetime of wisdom to this ever-astonishing music ... Davis is a supreme interpreter of this work... An outstanding disc, beautifully recorded'
CLASSICAL CD OF THE WEEK Sunday Times (UK), 30 May 2004

International Record Review, Jul/Aug 2004
'... a crafty pairing: the familiar fifth, played with all the seasoned wisdom one would expect of this veteran maestro and his mean London machine, alongside the less well-known, but no less rewarding sixth. ... a must for serious collectors'
The Observer (UK), 27 Jun 2004
'Conductor and orchestra give commanding performances of both symphonies. The fifth is majestic and inspired, beautifully detailed and paced'
Evening Standard (UK), 11 Jun 2004
