Famed in his lifetime for his large-scale choral works, but perhaps best known today for his Violin Concerto No. 1 and Kol Nidrei, Max Bruch also composed three symphonies. The First, dedicated to Brahms and indebted to Mendelssohn and Schumann, was well received. The weighty Second, dedicated to the violinist/composer Joseph Joachim and echoing the music of Beethoven and Brahms, features a lovely Adagio movement with lyrical solos for several instruments.

Tracks:

Symphony No. 1 in E flat major, Op. 28
Symphony No. 2 in F minor, Op. 36
