How brilliantly and organically Bruckner builds the climax, much better than even Beethoven can achieve.

I love the Wagner tuba solo.

It will not be lost on the astrologists amongst us that Haitink's birthday is march 4, exactly opposite Bruckner's september 4.

I agree!

@martinpklehmann it's intended for a concert hall, not a cathedral. yes, it was surely conceived with the acoustics of churches and the instrumental workings and nuances of organ repertoire in mind, but i'm sure bruckner would have been more than happy to hear that some random person enjoyed this epic symphony enough to make it known to the entire audience.

Questa stupenda interpretazione di Bernard Haitink è il tipico esempio di stile classico ed elegante, ma con sonorità orchestrale moderna e rifinita. L'equilibrio della struttra generale della Sinfonia è sempre appoggita al linguaggio melodico. Le architetture dell'impianto armonico si disegnano con nitidezza e colore, in una fresca lucentezza sonora. Purtroppo questi concetti non li ho mai ritrovati nelle interpretazioni di artisti e direttori dell'estremo oriente. Peccato per loro !!
