Barenboim:Staatskapelle - Bruckner: The Mature Symphonies

In Anton Bruckner's 7th Symphony, the listener encounters a music characterized by great spaciousness and profound solemnity, a music which speaks of grief and lamentation, but also of their transcendence. With its monumental architecture and intensity of sound, the symphony has moved listeners ever since its triumphal premiere in 1884. The Guardian calls Daniel Barenboim's London interpretation Tremendous ... Barenboim and the Staatskapelle seem to have this work in their systems, and the overall impression was of music unfolding organically at its own pace rather than of a work being self-consciously interpreted or led.Picture Format DVD: NTSC 16:9 Region Code: 0 (worldwide) Sound Formats DVD: PCM Stereo, Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS 5.1Running Time: 72:20 minDisc Format DVD: DVD-9
