Description:

[Nielsen, Denmark's greatest composer, left six symphonies in his lifetime with a unique style that distinguished him from the Romantic school. Among them, No. 4, known by the title "Immortal," is the best known, but No. 5 is generally considered to be his greatest masterpiece. The complete set of Nielsen's symphonies performed by Blomstedt, a Swedish citizen, and the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra is reputed to be the definitive recording.
