"... a fine recording and a brace of performances which has much to recommend it ... de Vriend does have a way of making these symphonies sound fresh and exciting however, even a little dangerous, in a different and good way."
- MusicWeb International
This album contains refreshing new interpretations of two Beethoven symphonies from conductor Jan Willem de Vriend and his Netherlands Symphony Orchestra. De Vriend is a fast rising star as a symphonic conductor and this third volume in his complete Beethoven symphony cycle is a fine musical signature with which he and his musicians perpetuate themselves. The conductor has been working on this intensively for the past 20 years, immersing himself in the life of Beethoven to gain the best possible understanding of the composer and his roots. To this end, de Vriend has conducted the music of Beethoven, of people who composed for him and of his contemporaries.
