About

In his first recording for harmonia mundi, Pablo Heras-Casado gives us two of Schubert's six symphonies performed with Freiburger Barockorchester. The carefree Third of 1815 ends with a Rossinian tarantella whilst the darker Fourth (1816) looks more towards Beethoven. The subtitle 'Tragic' came from the 19-year-old composer himself, but perhaps the real tragedy is that this symphony, like all his others, was never played in public in his lifetime.

Pablo Heras-Casado enjoys an unusually varied conducting career, encompassing the great symphonic and operatic repertoire, historically-informed performance and cutting-edge contemporary scores. In 2011 he was announced Principal Conductor of the Orchestra of St Luke's in New York, beginning a four-year term including an annual concert season at Carnegie Hall.
