This disc marks the beginning of a new series, dedicated to the engaging, albeit neglected, orchestral works of the German-Swiss composer Joachim Raff - one of the most widely performed and influential musicians of his day. The survey starts with Symphony No. 2 and the orchestral preludes to four plays by Shakespeare: The Tempest, MacBeth, Romeo and Juliet, and Othello, all idiomatically performed by the Orchestre de la Suisse romande, conducted by it's new Artistic and Music Director, Neeme Jeñrvi.
