Launching mid-sentence, pushing outwards, inwards, upwards and downwards, Brahm's First Symphony took a long time coming, but its opening bars herald the composer as one who was to address the symphony with distinctly original ideas. Yes, Beethoven's insistence and thrust is there, as is the clipped finesse of early Brahms, but the rigour, ardour and depth is all new. This is a work for which the London Philharmonic Orchestra has developed an acclaimed affinity in recent years.
