Few conductors have recorded the complete Bruckner Symphonies (not including any unusual ones like number "0"). Barenboim, Jochum, Karajan, et al have one thing in common - a great affinity for lavish romantic music, especially German repertoire. Is it Bruckner's music that only attracts the "deepest" of conductors or is it that deep conductors have a tough time finding deep lengthy symphonies to conduct besides Mahler? Recall neither Jochum nor Karajan were heavy Mahlerites. Bravo Danny.

"Dem lieben Gott". Grande interpretazione di questo capolavoro bruckneriano ancora troppo sottovalutato. E' possibile ascoltare nitidamente la tensione e il ripensamento della fede di fronte alla morte.

For me , the best recording in DVD of Bruckner´s Symphonies ( 4 to 9 ) are by Günter Wand - all from the annual Festival in Lübeck, from 1998 to 2001. ( Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival ). Really fantastic, trully better than Bernstein, Karajan, Solti, etc, in my modest opinion. Even the movement 1 of the Bruckner´s Symphonie 9, which I don´t like very much usually, it is more interesting in the Wand version.

@mirkojorgovic Yes, really.

@codonauta First movement is tribute to Beethoven's 9th /1

I don´t like much of the movement one ; but the Scherzo and the Adagio are spectacular. Works of genius. Mainly the Adagio.
