About

45 years after his debut Philips recording of Beethoven’s Ninth, Seiji Ozawa returns to this epic masterpiece.

The Mito Chamber Orchestra features many international star players including Radek Baborák (horn), Ricardo Morales (clarinet) and Philippe Tondre (oboe).

The German baritone Markus Eiche leads a quartet of leading Japanese soloists and the Tokyo Opera Singers in a fascinating performance on a chamber-orchestra scale.

“Ozawa may be entering a glorious Indian summer of creativity” – Gramophone

“One of the most joyous recordings of Beethoven’s First Piano Concerto to have come out for years” – Gramophone (on Symphony no.1/Piano Concerto no.1 with Martha Argerich)
