This weekend it was 100s birthday of Günter Wand. I was not planning any “events” but the event did found me. Yesterday a local friend of my visited me. Me were listening some music and he brought some Japanese-made and not available otherwise DVDs with Bruckner recordings. One of them was Bruckner Symphony No. 4 with NDR Sinfonieorchester recorded during live concert. it was the original 1878 version and it was performed not anywhere but in the celebrated Lübeck cathedral with its renown 10 second reverberation time…
I crank sound in my video room all the way up. The play phenomenal, the sound was phenomenal and the video presentation was not as annoying as usual. It was such a stunning presentation that as it was over I told to my friend that I am not willing to hear anything else today, he felt the same.
I do not use my video room very frequently. I like the options but I am not sure that I like the entire video experience as much as I like my main playback room. Still, the Bruckner 4 yesterday was the single most inspiriting experience that I had from my video room so far. It was so powerful that I did not even had any interest to hear the yesterday neither live broadcast of BSO Richard Strauss’s “Also sprach Zarathustra” nor the last night’s live broadcast of Verdi's 'Rigoletto' from Washington National Opera.
