Description:

Schmidt-Isserstedt and his hand-picked North German Radio SO give a gem of a performance of Dvořák's Serenades.　Schmidt-Isserstedt's solid conducting sings two gems, "Dvořák: Serenades" with exquisite expression in this masterful recording. The performance of the "Serenade for Strings" with its calm and soft sound, and the "Serenade for Winds" with its fascinating variety of sounds, draws a quality ensemble from the North German Radio Symphony Orchestra, which Schmidt-Isserstedt has devoted himself to since its foundation, and is as masterful as his masterpiece "Beethoven: Complete Symphonies".
