Description:

[Encore Press: Mercury Living Presence 50] No. 5 is one of the most masterful works, expressing spiritual conflict and triumph through a logical structure that builds on the famous motif at the beginning. Composed at about the same time, but with contrasting characteristics, No. 6 is full of impressive pastoral music with skillful descriptions colored with praise for nature and expansive emotions. Dorati conducts the London Symphony Orchestra in two of Beethoven's masterpieces. Coupled with the overture to the ballet "The Creation of Prometheus" based on Greek mythology. Rubidium clock cutting. [London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Antal Dorati.
