Masterpieces Performed by NHK Symphony Orchestra - Season 2 Episode 3
We've chosen Brahms' Symphony No. 1 for the last day of this season. His first symphony took Brahms over 20 years from sketches to finishing touches. The masterpiece is the result of serious deliberations he made as he sought to surpass Beethoven, a great composer who left his mark on the history of the symphony, and produce something that would succeed his works. NHK Symphony Orchestra's Honorary Conductor Laureate Herbert Blomstedt took the baton. Enjoy the performance by the maestro and the orchestra who have built a relationship of trust through 30 years' experiences of working together.
