Berliner Philharmoniker, Sir Simon Rattle Following the recent release of their recording of Brahms’s Ein deutsches Requiem, Sir Simon Rattle and the Berliner Philharmoniker turn their attention to another great 19th-century German work, Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 4. The recording, taken in concert, is scheduled for release in May 2007 to commemorate the 125th anniversary of the Berliner Philharmoniker, which was founded in May of 1882. “Bruckner’s Fourth was crafted beautifully: an ambitious interpretation, well-structured as usual, but Rattle wanted more this time: he emotionalized the work in a breathtaking manner. There were wonderful moments of quietness and exciting, joltingly moving climaxes full of life. … Especially impressive was the fact that Rattle proved himself to be the master of permanent transition. He dissolved the disruptions typical for Bruckner’s music, developed one thought from the previous one and combined everything logically. The stumbling blocks and rough edges were removed. The string section in particular presented itself in great form, not just with lush sound but – especially in the long movement – with fascinating detail and a wide range of gentle shades.” - rbb Kulturradio reviewing the performance | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
