Title: An undervalued Composer
Product review: I recently discovered the symphonic music of Niel Wilhelm Gade, and I have to say I wish I had done so sooner. You can have a very pleasant time listening to them. In this Volume of the setChristopher Hogwood and the DNR give warm heartfelt performances of the symphonies numbers 4 & 7 along with a concert overture.All of the pieces reveal a warm Romantic sound and a NorthernFlavor. Gade was a Dutch composer who was much admired byMendelssohn. I for one am glad that Chandos and Christopher Hogwood and the DNR have decided to bring the Symphonies of N.W. Gade to a wider audience. There are Four volumes in the symphony series Volume One features the symphonies nos. 2&8, Volume 3 features Symphonies 3&6 and Volume 4 which will be released soon features Symphonies 1&5. The Symphony no. 5 is unusual as it features a very promiate part for the piano.
