Riccardo Chailly and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra have won Gramophone‘s Recording of the Year 2014 for their recording of the Brahms symphonies. Chailly was presented with the Award by Sir Neville Marriner at this evening’s Gramophone Awards ceremony in London.

This is not the first time that Chailly and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra have won the coveted Recording of the Year Award for a Brahms recording, they won the Award in 2007 for the piano concertos with pianist Nelson Freire.

Gramophone‘s Recording of the Year Award is the ultimate accolade for any classical recording artist.
