Other than the Schumann symphonies, it was the only symphony cycle this tremendous Decca artist made for the label. The recordings were all made in the Mann Auditorium and were all produced by Ray Minshull, who, together with John Culshaw and Christopher Raeburn, worked extensively with Mehta during his exclusive Decca years. Volume 1 contains the first four symphonies as well as the mighty Eighth, the ‘Unfinished’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/REVIEWS_CS_WORLD_7169b53a-dbe6-4c81-930b-be7f7575534e_480x480.png?v=1597936904\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"vital, well-styled’ (Nos. 1 \u0026amp; 2) Gramophone\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e‘Mehta secures neat, articulate, musically fluent performances from his Israeli orchestra and the Decca engineers reproduce them with admirable lucidity and absence of fuss’ (Nos. 4 \u0026amp; 8) Gramophone\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e‘Mehta directs a performance well inside the Viennese tradition … crisply pointed readings admirably suited to these youthful inspirations.’ (No. 3) Gramophone\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_1_4b3088c9-df3c-47ba-bf41-5b7e5d1a8144_480x480.png?v=1597936873\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSCHUBERT\u003cbr\u003eCD1\u003cbr\u003eSymphony No. 1 in D major, D.82\u003cbr\u003eSymphony No. 2 in B flat major, D.125\u003cbr\u003eSymphony No. 8 in B minor, D.759 ‘Unfinished’\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD2\u003cbr\u003eSymphony No. 3 in D major, D.200\u003cbr\u003eSymphony No. 4 in C minor ‘Tragic’, D.417\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIsrael Philharmonic Orchestra\u003cbr\u003eZubin Mehta\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DECCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32340433666135,"sku":"028948032914 - ETC","price":5.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/products\/00028948032914-cover.jpg?v=1600259809","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/de-de\/products\/schubert-franz-symphonies-vol-1-nos-1-4-8-israel-philharmonic-orchestra","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
