Langgaard: Symphony No. 4 (Løvfald); Symphony No. 5 (Steppenatur)

Rued Langgaard represented the latest of late-Romantic reactionary tendencies in Danish music. Both works on this disc sound impressively confident and powerful, helped by ripe playing from the Danish orchestra under Thomas Dausgaard. Stephen Pettitt
