JOHANNES BRAHMS

For over a decade, Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe (COE) have been reunited each summer in the German spa town of Baden-Baden. In 2021, their work there led to a well-received complete Beethoven symphony cycle, released on DG in 2022. In the summer of 2022 Nézet-Séguin became artistic director of the Festspielhaus’s new La Capitale d’Été festival and during that and the next year’s residencies, the COE and Nézet-Séguin performed and recorded all four of Brahms symphonies. The performances were euphorically received.
