Just now I have received the confirmation about B7 with Blomstedt and Wiener at Salzburg. After B8 with Rattle and Berliner and B4 always with Blomstedt and Staadtskapelle at Dresda ( together Beethoven PC3 with Schiff ) I think I have to say thank...

Herbert Blomstedt had a tour this past summer with the Bamberg Sinfoniker. I didn't get to hear them in the Stift Church in St. Florian, but in Würzburg in the Dom which also has a very nice "bloom". The only disadvantage was that the horns were sitt...

Thanks, rowuk, I am sure it was a great to be there. Do you
know if the recordings from the concerts cycle are available?

Well, unfortunately, or fortunately, Giulini with Vienna during this live 1988 performance have closed any imaginable interpretation of Bruckner 9. At least it is the way how I feel…. In Feb 13, 8PM, Herbert Blomstedt will be leading San Francisco Sy...

There was some noise from them about releasing a CD of the tour. I am not sure how seriously the Bavarian Radio treated the recordings however.My daughter works at the artist agency representing Blomstedt. I will ask her. He personally likes the Gewa...

My and Romy's posts above from a few months ago indicated this would happen so there shouldn't be any surprise. Again, Eschenbach excels mainly in choral works for some reason. Many US orchestras have far more difficulty with Bruckner than with Mahle...

I never was a huge fun of it. It is an OK symphony and my Barbirolli’s play with London pretty much was all that was enough for me. Today my FM again broke my virginity…
Herbert Blomstedt took James Levine’s place to lead today BSO. The Egmont...

Poking around for options to acquire downloads of the Bruckner symphonies, including the performances briefly streamed free in April, I came across the following options on HDTracks.com. In no particular order we have, covering at least B4 through B9...

I asked John F. Berky if the Bamberg cycle was released.
He said that his has B5 from July 22, 2017:

Rony, as I underrated from California to France you would not find a direct fly and it would be a landing some in East Cost. Would it be a different time then I would invite you to lend in Boston and spend some time with me. Unfortunately for aud...

I never was a big fan of this symphony, as I am not a big fan of Shostakovich generally, but this time it was truly remarkable performing event. My local FM WGBH 89.7 stated the new fiscal year funding campaign and compile a CD recorded “live” locall...

A few years ago Bernard Haitink conquered my heart for all times.Leading the CSO most patiently through Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis,everything made sense, sheer beauty. The only performance even close was a recent Blomstedt Brahms excursion. Perhaps I...

So I bought the Bruckner symphony collection by the Bavarian Radio (Bayerische Rundfunk) Orchestra. It was the least expensive set offered by HDTracks and I thought it would be interesting to hear how different conductors approach Bruckner. It has Ma...

It is hard to stress how much “right tone” an orchestra need to play the adagio from Bruckner 7. It might be a good orchestra but it might still be “the-Adagio-incompatible” and I have seen very few of them that are compatible.
I am playing now a v...

Join us on Saturday, September 4, 2010, to celebrate Bruckner's 186th birthday in Carlsbad, California. This year marks our 12th annual Bruckner Marathon and we'd like to share some good music with Bruckner lovers. As in previous years, we'll pl...

At the beginning, audio was a scientific event. People like Bell, Marconi, Edison all were interested in playback of audio outside of the original performance. One used a telephone, another radio and yet another a medium in between for storage. I thi...

My tastes in audio slowly but irreversibly migrate out of the “common audiophile sense”. Years ago I met some people form NY and Chicago, the former classical radio-station employees, the people with encyclopedic knowledge and understanding of m...

A couple of days ago, I attended a concert with the Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra conducted by Herbert Blomstedt. They played Death and Transfiguration by Richard Strauss and Beethoven Eroica Symphony.

A few years ago I did not “get” Bruckner. Then, like with everything else, it changed. And of course being a compulsive feline, I can not get enough of what I like….
I admit that I listen quite a lot of Bruckner lately. There is something very medit...
