It seems incredible, but Claudio bbado's career with DG stretches back over more than four decades. In that time he has made innumerable recordings that have stood the test of time - classics right from the start. In opera, in modern music, as a partner in concerto recordings, Abbado has left a glorious indelible mark. In more recent years, every Abbado recording has been an event, something special - whether his Mahler symphonies with Berlin, or the Mozart, Bach and Pergolesi projects with 'his' Orchestra Mozart. And, of course, as a sponsor and champion of new orchestras Read.

One of Claudio Abbado's crowning achievements in Berlin was his Brahms Symphonies cycle on DG (he also recorded Brahms VC and Double Concerto). Granted, this was recorded around the time he was appointed as the music director of the Berlin Philharmonie, when the honeymoon between the conductor and the orchestra was at its peak. Indeed, Abbado elicits milky and sweetened sound from BPO in all four symphonies putting every instrumentalist in the crystal clear sonic convas. DG's sonics are a tad distant but let you hear every minute detail so that you get the idea of what the conductor.

states Claudio Abbado who has constantly reworked the symphonies of the master from Bonn (1770-1827). Although he was the director of the Scala in Milan for fifteen years, which earned him a reputation as an outstanding opera conductor, he has also been familiar with the German and Viennese repertoires since he studied with Hans Swarowsky in Vienna. This monument in the history of Western music to which Claudio Abbado is so attached, was composed by Beethoven in less than a quarter of a century, from 1799 to 1823. A monument which covers the greater part of the composer's life – he wrote the First Symphony at thirty-one and the Ninth Symphony at fifty-four. With Beethoven ended the era of symphonists who composed, like Haydn, up to a hundred symphonies. From then on musicians composed approximately ten symphonies, each stamped with its own personality.
