A disc of popular and less well known works by Beethoven and Brahms, Bertrand de Billy again conducts the ORF Radio Symphony Orchestra Vienna, along with the Vienna State Opera Chorus and featuring tenor, Johan Botha in Rinaldo, Brahms’ Cantata for Tenor and Men’s Chorus. Bertrand de Billy’s recording of Beethoven’s third symphony on Oehms (OC621) was described by German magazine Fonoforum as ‘Beethoven for connoiseurs and musical spirits.’
“de Billy sheds an optimistic light on this dramatic cantata, starting with a male chorus whose ringing summons to duty doesn't however overwhelm the orchestra. All forces are indeed skilfully weighted, de Billy and Johan Botha equal to the heroic or sorrowful in the score.” Gramophone
