DVOŘÁK: “New World” Symphony
MENDELSSOHN: “Scottish” Symphony
both in the composers’ own four-hand versions

There are hundreds of works which have been arranged for piano duet, many quite mediocre. But there are some magnificent works, including those selected by Goldstone & Clemmow, Britain’s top duo. The two symphonies on this disc are such examples, both having been written by the composers as original versions and not as an afterthought. We believe that this is the first recording of the “Scottish” Symphony in this version.

    Antonin Dvořák:
  1. Symphony no. 9 in E minor, op. 95 (From the New World) − I. Adagio (8:46)
  2. Symphony no. 9 in E minor, op. 95 (From the New World) − II. Largo (10:10)
  3. Symphony no. 9 in E minor, op. 95 (From the New World) − III. Scherzo (7:52)
  4. Symphony no. 9 in E minor, op. 95 (From the New World) − IV. Allegro con fuoco (10:30)
  5. Felix Mendelssohn:
  6. Symphony no. 3 in A minor, op. 56 (Scottish) − I. Andante con moto (12:37)
  7. Symphony no. 3 in A minor, op. 56 (Scottish) − II. Vivace non troppo (4:19)
  8. Symphony no. 3 in A minor, op. 56 (Scottish) − III. Adagio (7:54)
  9. Symphony no. 3 in A minor, op. 56 (Scottish) − IV. Allegro vivacissimo (9:19)
