Description:

This 6-CD set includes previously unreleased live recordings of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra. This album commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra and the 10th anniversary of Chief Conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin's appointment. Yannick Nézet-Séguin's carefully selected selections include Mahler's Tenth Symphony, Shostakovich's Fourth Symphony, the world premiere recording of Marc-Anthony Tanéj's Piano Concerto with Marcandre Amrand on piano, and the extremely moving Haydn "Sorrow" Symphony. Canadian maestro Yannick Nézet-Séguin became chief conductor of the Rotterdam Philharmonic in 2008 and ushered in a new golden age for the orchestra, as evidenced by this superb set of recordings at the De Doren Concert Hall from 2011 to 2016. The live recordings are being released together for the first time by Deutsche Grammophon.First release Universal Music/IMS
