Symphony 5 [Import]

Gustavo Dudamel, "quite simply the hottest new conductor for a generation" (The Observer), presents his highly anticipated second album on Deutsche Grammophon. Again with the forces of the SBYOV, the disc features another symphonic masterpiece. With it's energetic outbursts, expressive cantilenas and constant changes of mood, Mahler's Symphony No. 5 is the ideal repertoire to showcase the forces of the SBYOV and it's conductor. Dudamel and the orchestra caused a sensation on their 2006 tour of Italy when Claudio Abbado, who was announced to conduct the symphony, handed the baton over to Dudamel at the last minute. Even in Abbado's home country, Gustavo and his orchestra pulled off a Mahler 5 that brought the euphoric audience to their feet. "Critics have called the Venezuelan phenomenon Gustavo Dudamel one of the most talented young conductors in the world - and they are absolutely right." (The New York Times).
