Free Music Notes for Bruckner: Symphony No. 9

Free Music Review: Transcendent Music, Resplendent Sound
Hit: 5 Stars

When I first heard that Reference Recordings was going to release a recording of the Bruckner 9th, I was really excited, for this unfinished piece is one of the true gems of the orchestral repertoire. Furthermore, I figured that Skrowaczewski and the Minnesota (long-time readers will remember their wonderful Vox Box of Ravel back in the '70s--it was not all disco back then!) would do an excellent job of it, as would engineer Keith Johnson.

When I first heard this CD, I was really thrilled, for my expectations had been fulfilled. This is a fine, fine recording, truly a CD to treasure. I have long owned the Walter on Columbia (although I could not find it on my shelf when I went to look for it recently--I have either misplaced it or somebody "borrowed" it) and the Giulini on DG. The latter is one of those perversely but powerfully slow Giulini performances--he takes the first movement in 28:02, as opposed to Skrowaczewski's 22:54--and one of the better-sounding pre-4D DG recordings. The DG still sounds pretty good, but the Reference Recordings HDCD-recorded sound is better.

It is truly heartening to see this kind of repertoire showing up on an audiophile label. I want to personally thank Keith Johnson, Tam Henderson, and the rest of the RR crew for making available such transcendent music in such resplendent sound.
