The Master and the shepherd boy: Brahms and Nielsen
Sibelius & Nielsen - 12 concerts, 24 symphonies
Nielsen was very inspired by Brahms, through predecessor Svendsen and Gade. All came from this musical furrow, which can be viewed as a line from Brahms-Schumann-Beethoven-Mozart. Here is the mature Brahms against the young Nielsen - the champion against the shepherd boy, who is playing with fire.
Conductor: Alexander Vedernikov
Brahms: Symfoni nr. 4
Nielsen: Symfoni nr. 1
