KAROL SZYMANOWSKI (1882-1937): Concert Overture, Op. 12, Study in B Flat Minor, Op. 4/3 (orch. Grzegorz Fitelberg [1879-1953]), Symphony No. 1 in F Minor, Op. 15, Symphony No. 4 for Piano and Orchestra, Op. 60 "Symphonie Concertante".

Description: As Naxos continues to re-record their Szymanowski, we offer this new version of the very rarely heard first symphony of 1907 and the fairly rare Concert Overture of two years before - both very Richard Straussian works of massive sound and, in these recordings, bone-rattling dynamic range - and the equally rare Fitelberg orchestration of Szymanowski's most famous piano piece. Jan Krzysztof Broja (piano), Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra; Antoni Wit.
