He leads the Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra and is joined by Camilla Nylund, Iris Vermillion, Jonas Kaufmann, Franz-Joseph Selig and the Gächinger Kantorei Stuttgart in the towering Ninth Symphony.
Your NEW Featured Selection
It's been 200 years since Haydn's death; Roger Norrington and his orchestra celebrate his memory with these live recordings with the usual focus on historical playing style, orchestra size, seating, tempos, phrasing, articulation and overall sound. Norrington makes every attempt to let the orchestra "sing," allowing the unique character of each symphony to come through.

He was Musical America's 2006 Instrumentalist of the Year as well as a Grammy® and NARAS Presidential Merit Award winner.

Your Previous Musical Heritage Review
Your Previous Featured Selection
The Budapest-born András Schiff is one of the best-known living interpreters of the music of Bach. The Society, through special arrangement with Denon and Omega, offers three András Schiff recordings featuring the music of Johann Sebastian Bach.
Your Previous Cover Feature
The Society offers an unusual 10-CD boxed set featuring early Glenn Gould recordings licensed primarily from the CBC and, presumably, Columbia (the package copy doesn't say). The set is divided between three eras — the music of Bach, the music of Beethoven and finally 20th century composers. There are four discs focusing on Bach and they include, oddly, two versions of the Goldbergs — one from 1954 and one from 1955.
