¡Bruckner: Symphony No.8 [1. Fassung 1887][SACD Hybrid]
¡Simone Young (conductor)
Description
[Machine Translation] Simone Young, the first female conductor to conduct the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, has joined the Hamburg Philharmonic Orchestra for the fourth recording cycle of Bruckner's first symphonies. Following the 2nd Symphony, the 3rd Symphony "Wagner" (selected as one of the "Top Ten Classical Discs 2007" by Classical Journal), and the 4th "Romantic", this is the fourth recording of the 8th Symphony, which is popular as a masterpiece. The first draft (first draft) was completed in 1887, but Bruckner is said to have been disheartened when his trusted conductor Levi refused to play it. The second draft was premiered in 1892 by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by H. Richter, and was a great success. Some people highly evaluate the fresh charm of the first manuscript, which reflects Bruckner's original intention, and it has been reevaluated remarkably in recent years, and even Japanese orchestras have taken up the work. Along with the charm of the first draft, Simone Young played the Hamburg Philharmonic Orchestra to the fullest in a masterful performance of the masterpiece Eighth Symphony. Recorded live: December 14 and 15, 2008 at the Reisshalle [former Musikhalle], Hamburg, Germany [DDD]STEREO&SACD: 5.0 Surround
