Sir Simon Rattle & London Symphony Orchestra
Sir Simon Rattle conducts the London Symphony Orchestra in a performance of Franz Schubert's Symphony No. 9 in C Major, D. 944. Also known as The Great, is the final symphony completed by Schubert. Unusually long for a symphony of its time, a typical performance of The Great lasts around one hour. The work was found to be very difficult for orchestras of the day because of its extremely lengthy woodwind and string parts. This performance is recorded at St. Luke's, London on January 7th, 2021.
