description
Julius Röntgen (1855-1932) was born in Leipzig to a Dutch father, who was concertmaster of the famous Gewandhaus Orchester, and a German mother, a pianist. He trained as a pianist and performed Brahms’ 2nd Piano Concerto under the baton of the composer himself. In 1878 he moved to Amsterdam, The Netherlands, where he stayed the rest of his life, becoming an important member of the musical society, co-founding the Amsterdam Conservatory and the Concertgebouw. • Röntgen’s style is closely modelled on the works of Johannes Brahms, his colleague and close friend. But also Reger, Nielsen and Grieg were his inspirations. • This 2 CD set presents a musical portrait of Röntgen, in symphonic works, chamber music and choral works: beautiful, full blooded romantic music of the highest quality (not without reason Brahms confessed to have stolen a melody of Röntgen for his own second symphony!). • Previously issued on the NM Classics label. They present excellent performances by Dutch musicians: Netherlands Radio Symphony Orchestra, Jac van Steen, Netherlands Chamber Choir and many more.
