Bruckner: Symphony No. 9

Jansons, Mariss, Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks

900173

In January 2014, Mariss Jansons and the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks presented the original version of the three completed movements to the public in Munich at the Philharmonie in Gasteig. In its current position, the slow movement cuts a fine figure and helps the symphony reach a dignified conclusion. What could be more appealing than this swan song, swaying as it does between suffering and promise before fading away into a vision of peace and serenity? - The Munich recording has now been released on CD by BR-KLASSIK. In its original version, the work is an exemplary interpretation of one of the most important compositions of the Late Romantic symphonic repertoire. • Bruckner's Ninth Symphony, dedicated to "the beloved God," ranks as a powerful connecting link between Late Romanticism and the Modern age; even without a final movement, it remains an impressive masterpiece. • Exciting live atmosphere of Munich concerts performed in January 2014, with the unique acoustics of the Philharmonie in Gasteig • Performed by the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, conducted by proven Bruckner specialist Mariss Jansons
