For the first time in their history, the Wiener Symphoniker will release a complete Beethoven symphonies cycle on CD.

"This new Vienna cycle is clearly the one with which 43-year-old Jordan intends to make his case...In sum, here are old skills married to new inspiration. At this late hour in the history of Beethoven on record, it would be unreasonable to ask for more." Gramophone Editor's Choice January 2018

"Jordan drives Symphony No 1 onwards with persuasive, buoyant energy. ...What stands out is the depth and variety of colour in the playing - especially in the second movement, which starts with a plaintive, hopeless-sounding oboe solo that gives this funeral march a distinctive keening quality." Guardian

Tracks:

Symphony No. 1 in C major, Op. 21
Symphony No. 3 in E flat major, Op. 55 'Eroica'
