  • Andris Nelsons - Gewandhausorchester is one of the best Bruckner Eights I've heard in a long time / LIMELIGHT
    Posted At: April 9, 2021 12:00 AM

    LIMELIGHT's Greg Keane writes......Sometimes you experience a hitherto completely unfamiliar piece of music, which not only opens up another universe, both musical and spiritual, but also leaves an imprint that becomes a template for all subsequent accounts.  Nelson's Leipzig Bruckner has been rightly lauded (except perhaps the Seventh) and this Eighth and the unjustly neglected Second are n...

  • New Andris Nelsons, Gewandhausorchester Leipzig brings together two of Bruckner's best symphonies / Classical Music Sentinel
    Posted At: May 31, 2019 12:00 AM

    Anyone who's visited my blog and read "The Bruckner Conundrum: The Problem with Anton" will know my opinions on and perception of the music of Anton Bruckner (1824-1896).

With that said, like I mention in my blog, I believe it to be "a monumental sym...
