Dumay 8th Symphony Analysis

From BBC Music Magazine that the 8th symphony is, “The familiar warmth is still there, but now there's a much firmer sense of disciplined purposefulness, and barely a rubato in sight. Whatever your opinions on the morality of style, there's a lovely generosity and enthusiasm about Dumay's playing and direction that makes it all very hard to resist” The opinion from BBC Music Magazine about the symphony is that they really love it with the strong purpose in this symphony and how powerful it stands out. Then from Gramophone Magazine their opinion is, “Perhaps not every gesture convinces, but better that than an anodyne, safety-first approach; rest assured, there's no whiff of stale routine, and Dumay's customary stylish, raptly intense showing,
to say nothing of his subtly variegated tonal palette, will enthral his many admirers.”.There thoughts about this symphony is that the don’t enjoy it as much as the BBC Music Magazine does.
