About

Marek Janowski presents Schumann: Complete Symphonies, a comprehensive collection recorded together with the Dresdner Philharmonie. After a fruitful decade as a composer for piano and voice, Schumann then began writing symphonic works, marking a new phase in his life. Recorded between 2021 and 2023, Janowski interprets Schumann's symphonies with great vitality and intensity in this release that celebrates the culmination of his appointment as chief conductor with the orchestra. Marek Janowski is one of the most celebrated conductors of our time. This remarkable recording of Schumann's complete symphonies follows 2023's Schubert Unfinished & Great Symphonies (also with the Dresdner Philharmonie), complete recordings of Bruckner, Brahms and Beethoven's symphonies, several works by Richard Strauss, and Wagner's ten mature operas. He works together with the Dresdner Philharmonie, with whom he already released complete recordings of Beethoven's Fidelio (2021), Puccini's Il Tabarro and Mascagni's Cavalleria rusticana (both 2020).

Awards and reviews

  • International Classical Music Awards
    2025
    Nominated - Symphonic Music

July 2024

Right from that wonderful opening fanfare, the ‘Spring’ has a sense of confident, intelligent, loving engagement with the music, well served by the recording team, which carried me right through even the one questionable moment.

June 2024

Janowski enables the listener to hear right inside the score, but the total experience of each symphony as a romantic (and Romantic) journey proves more elusive.
