My goodness this is so glorious. I have to be in the right mood to appreciate this. But it is so majestic ....

7:51 - Music, when in becoming as it is here, is at its most suggestive and powerful. You can find many passages like this in all Bruckner's symphonies but especially - from memory - in 4,8,9 and the passage just before the coda of I - 6. This is another example of what people call Bruckner "verticality", emerging from the abyss and projecting you to the greatest heights.

This is absolutely one of the greatest performances of this piece. The best Bruckner conductor+the best Bruckner orchestra!
Thank you for uploading!

Karajan in my heart forever.
Why so few viewings of this unsurpassable piece of history.

I couldn't agree more. A masterpiece performed in a venue of Bruckner's own choosing - by arguably the one conductor who could best understand this particular work - and by the one orchestra (apart from the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam) most suited to and understanding of Bruckner's particular sound and expression.
Every moment is glorious - deepest thanks!
