Beethoven - The Symphonies / Augér, Robbin, Rolfe Johnson, Reinhart, AAM, Hogwood
: :Stylistically, Hogwood is on firm ground, and there is much to be said for his insights into the music. He prefers not to 'conduct' the symphonies in the conventional manner, but to 'coordinate' their performance as a musician of the period might have done. His Eroica and Pastorale are outstanding, and his Ninth most impressive. The symphonies were recorded in the order of their composition, and the sound is consistently good throughout. --Ted Libbey
