Another building block for BRUCKNER2024
With the Philharmonie Festiva, Gerd Schaller recorded Anton Bruckner's fourth symphony in the first version from 1873, which was published by Profil Edition Günter Hänssler.
Ken Ward of The Bruckner Journal gives particular credit to this recording: “This excellent Philharmonie Festiva recording of the 1874 Fourth, a masterly interpretation under the baton of Gerd Schaller, provides a benchmark from which the true eloquence of Bruckner’s first version of his Romantic Symphony is given voice and reveals itself as a great work, worthy of standing at least as an equal beside the later more familiar versions of this symphony.”
