Description: The 94-year-old elder statesman of classical music (The New York Times) joins forces with the Gewandhausorchester for a Schubert programme of Symphonies No. 8 (Unfinished) and No. 9 (The Great), released just in time for his 95th birthday on 11th July 2022. The choice of repertoire for his late debut with Deutsche Grammophon was quickly made: Herbert Blomstedt, at 94 the worlds longest-serving conductor and still one of the most vital, chose Franz Schuberts last two symphonies, the Unfinished in B minor and the Great in C major. With the Gewandhaus Orchestra, which he presided over as Gewandhauskapellmeister from 1998 to 2005 and has since been closely associated with as honorary conductor, he had at his disposal an orchestra that is very familiar with Schuberts music.
