Excerpt:Allegro moderato
120 years after its premiere at Leipzig (under the baton of Arthur Nikisch), Philippe Herreweghe provides an opportunity to rediscover the Seventh Symphony played on period instruments.

· Allegro moderato (18'14)
· Adagio. Sehr feierlich und sehr langsam (20'19)
· Scherzo. Sehr schnell (9'15)
· Finale. Bewegt doch nicht schnell (11'51)
