“The orchestra excelled in the contrasts of the fourth movement, with the strings channeling fervid passions and the brasses taking a jeering delight in their disruptions. Mr. Nagano balanced the work’s disparate parts to create a kind of casual excitement: This famous piece didn’t sound predictable, nor did it strain too hard after unique effects.” -Seth Colter Walls | New York Times, October 2017
