Bruckner: 11 Symphonies / Thielemann, Vienna Philharmonic
Sony Classical releases the full cycle of Bruckner’s symphonies recorded by the Vienna Philharmonic under Christian Thielemann on 11 CDs. The box set, featuring the composer’s nine numbered symphonies, his ‘Study Symphony’, his ‘Nullified’ symphony, and a 172-page booklet. This release constitutes the first complete recording of the Austrian composer’s symphonies from the orchestra under a single conductor. Christian Thielemann enjoys a strong rapport with the Vienna Philharmonic and has established himself as one of his generation’s most esteemed interpreters of the Romantic Austro-German repertoire.
Past praise for previously released CDs included in this set:
Bruckner: Symphony No. 4 / Thielemann, Vienna Philharmonic
This new Bruckner Fourth deserves a strong recommendation. It is a reading of undeniable power and presence.
-- Fanfare
Bruckner: Symphony No. 8 / Thielemann, Vienna Ohilharmonic
Overall, there’s an aliveness to the music, inspired by the concert setting, which adds another reason this Bruckner Eighth is so satisfying. If you want to hear Thielemann at his best, conducting a stupendous orchestra, that’s precisely what we have here.
-- Fanfare
Bruckner: Symphony No. 9 . Thielemann, Vienna Philharmonic
Thielemann's interpretation has intimacies hard to find in other versions, and a vulnerability movingly communicated in the Vienna Philharmonic’s super-empathetic playing.
