The least famous of Beethoven's symphonies?
Yet these two works are genuine tours de force:
the composer takes the listener on a journey whose destination never seems to be known in advance,
one brimming over with structural innovations subtly brought out in this interpretation by the musicians of the Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin.
This recording is also an opportunity to discover just how clearly Cherubini's music prefigured that of Beethoven,
whereas Mehul's symphony is a response a la francaise to the German composer.
