Knappertsbusch Conducts Bruckner

Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, 29/30 January 1950. Hans Knappertsbusch, cond. 2007/2008 digital restorations. CD 1 (1:12); CD 2: (1:06).

Anton Bruckner
Symphony No. 8 in c. Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, 29 Oct. 1961; Symphony No. 9 in d (unfinished).

"Two visceral performances of late Bruckner as directed by Hans Knappertsbusch, a major exponent of the 'old school' of Bruckner interpretation... Knappertsbusch revered the C Minor Symphony of Bruckner and bequeathed us five inscriptions. This Vienna Philharmonic concert (29 October 1961), Kna's last with the VPO... resonates with introspective girth and massive distribution of acoustical sonority."
