Volume 1 (PRCD1055\/RCD1055), featuring Symphonies No. 1 and No. 3, was selected as “Record of the Month” in *Record Geijutsu*’s International Releases Review, named an “Editor’s Choice” in the November 2020 issue of *Gramophone* magazine, and was also named a “Critics’ Choice 2020”—an annual selection by critics—marking a strong start. Volume 2 (PRCD1072\/RCD1072) features Owain Awer Hughes, whose grand-scale performances have amazed Sibelius fans. The final volume features the popular Symphony No. 5, Symphony No. 6—which he was forced to interrupt due to World War I but eventually completed—and Symphony No. 7, which effectively became his final symphony after the loss of his eighth symphony in a fire. This marks the magnificent completion of a cycle of Sibelius’s symphonies, characterized by a rich, full-bodied sound and meticulous attention to detail.\n\nBorn in Cardiff, Wales, in 1942, Owain Arwel Hughes (Owain Arwel Hughes) grew up as the son of the successful composer and conductor Arwel Hughes (1909–1988). He studied conducting under Bolt, Haitink, and Kempe, and has continued his passionate musical career for over 40 years. Although his name is still relatively unknown in Japan, he has steadily built a solid reputation in Europe and the United States and is a highly accomplished artist who was awarded the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) in 2009.\nTokyo M Plus\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rubicon Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374647042337,"sku":"4947182117002","price":2829.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4947182117002.jpg?v=1787632182","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4947182117002","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
