Bruckner
Bruckner: Symphony No.4 (Profil)
A predictably fine performance of a rarer edition of this symphony [NB]
Bruckner: Symphony No 3 (Capriccio)
Three strikes and for me Herr Poschner is out … [RMo]
Bruckner: From the Archives, Volume 2 (Somm Recordings)
This second instalment confirms this will be a series well worth following as the Bruckner bicentenary year progresses [JQ]
Bruckner: Symphony No. 1 (Capriccio)
This brisk, nervy account pales in comparison with Schaller’s steadier, grander recording [RMo]
475 Jahre Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden (Profil)
Many first-class performances to celebrate the 475th anniversary of the Staatskapelle Dresden [MC]
Bruckner: Symphony 4 (Fontec)
Here we go again … best avoided [RMo]
Bruckner: From the Archives, Volume 1 (SOMM Ariadne)
The auspicious launch of what promises to be a Bruckner series of uncommon interest [JQ]
Bruckner: Symphony No 4 (Profil)
A magnificent account of the last version of Bruckner’s most approachable symphony, beautifully played in ideal recorded sound [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony 7 (Capriccio)
A patchy account, hobbled by a particularly egregious bit of tinkering with the codas of the first movement and the finale [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No 9 (Myrios Classics)
A swift, coherent, absorbing onslaught upon Bruckner’s Ninth which carries its own conviction [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No 4 (Onyx)
Hindoyan does absolutely everything right in a beautifully played account [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony 3 (Capriccio)
Poschner once more subjects Bruckner’s Third Symphony to unreasonable and unaesthetic haste [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No 3 (Myrios Classics)
An outstanding performance of Bruckner’s Third from François-Xavier Roth and his Cologne players [MC]
Bruckner: Symphony 2 (Capriccio)
A crisp, rhythmically alert account, making a wholly persuasive case for the original version of Bruckner’s Second Symphony [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No. 5 (RCA)
Harnoncourt’s remarkable vision of this great symphonic master [TB]
Bruckner: Symphony No 3 (Myrios Classics)
Another urgent, cohesive, thoroughly convincing account from a conductor who is a true Brucknerian [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony 8 (Fontec)
Another decent performance blighted by the conductor’s very audible vocal intrusions [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No. 2 (Profil)
A thoroughly commendable and consistent account of the most popular version of Bruckner’s Second Symphony [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No. 4 (Myrios Classics)
Roth makes an outstanding case for the original 1874 version of Bruckner’s Fourth [MC]
Bruckner: Symphony No. 1 (Capriccio)
A tight, driven account of Bruckner’s First Symphony which is a success even if I still prefer Schaller’s version [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No 7 (BR Klassik)
Haitink displays remarkable consistency in this grand and spacious account [RMo]
Bruckner: 10 Symphonies (Gramola)
Grand, broad, live performances of Bruckner’s symphonies now collected in a box set [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No. 1 (Gramola)
Ballot completes his survey of Bruckner’s symphonies with another highly individual reading employing daringly extended tempi [RMo]
Bruckner: Symphony No. 8 (BR Klassik)
Two disappointingly tame live performances [RMo]
