Sony Classical releases the fourth installment of Christian Thielemann's complete cycle of Anton Bruckner's symphonies with the Vienna Philharmonic - the orchestra's first Bruckner cycle under a single conductor. "The claim that this orchestra is essentially the only genuine original sound ensemble for the music of Anton Bruckner should remain beyond dispute" raves Die Presse. The Vienna Philharmonic premiered four of Bruckner's nine symphonies and has enjoyed a unique relationship with the Austrian composer's music since 1873, when it gave the first performance of his Symphony No 2. Thielemann has come as close as possible to the ideal Bruckner sound with the Vienna Philharmonic: full-toned, warm, with registrations that are full of countless colours, clear without sounding harsh and well-contoured without seeming angular. Thielemann's interpretations of Bruckner's music are rooted on deep expertise and sympathy. Few conductors can match the solemnity and patience he finds in composer's symphonies, or his ability to draw on the unparalleled beauty of the orchestra's sound and the special acoustic of it's home in Vienna, the Musikverein.
