Christoph von Dohnányi leads the Philharmonic in Brahms’s genial Second. Magnificent horn calls open the work, and cascades of melodies and dance-like passages delight the listener on the way to a finale that drives the symphony home with brasses ablaze. Esteemed virtuoso Emanuel Ax is the soloist in Mozart’s last piano concerto, which enchants with its subtlety, grace, and serenity.
