It was but a few years after founding the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century in 1981 that Frans BrÃ¼ggen first turned his attention to the music ofBeethoven's Nine Symphonies. He returned to immerse himself anew in this glorious music with a 2011 complete cycle which saw release by Glossa in 2012. From that survey, the Fifth and Sixth Symphonies now reappear on Glossa Cabinet.
