Beethoven: Symphonies 4 & 7 is Joshua Bell’s debut recording as Music Director of the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. Bell is a GRAMMY® Award-winning artist and this monumental release marks the first American and first person to hold the title of Music Director since Sir Neville Marriner formed the ensemble back in 1958. Bell is found both conducting and performing from the concertmaster chair. It is truly a display of virtuosity and has already garnered praise from The Washington Post.
“there’s a winning fluidity to the collaboration. Bell’s semi-historical approach involves sheer textures and blistering speeds, sweetened here and there with soloistic vibrato. The Seventh could do with more mist and awe but the dances are tightly and brightly pointed.” –The Independent
“These are splendidly alert performances, responding to every nuance in the music, and they made me listen to Beethoven with fresh ears. Particularly impressive is the pianissimo playing Bell obtains from the orchestra…This recording is a real pleasure.” –BBC Music Magazine
“Bell’s interpretative reach isn’t long but nothing is out of place. Readers who like music ‘played straight’ may be very satisfied” –Gramophone
