Re: Bruckner Symphonies update by John Quinn and Patrick Waller
John is correct that I haven’t heard the Blomstedt Leipzig cycle. There are some positive reviews of it out there (one describing it as “possibly the most important addition to the Bruckner discography in a generation”; also Brian Wilson has reviewed the Ninth on this site) and it’s certainly on my listening wish list. But for some years it has been expensive and hard to obtain, and I haven’t been able to find anywhere to stream or download it from. Let’s hope that situation changes soon. Previous Message We didn't mention Herbert Blomstedt's Leipzig cyccle in 2009, Dieter. I assume that, like me, Patrick has never had the chance to hear it. I have heard his very fine Dresden recordngs of the Fourth and Seventh but the Leipzig cycle has eluded me, which is a pity. As we've made clear,our surveys are limited to those recordings we've been able to hear over the years. One day I hope I'll be able to catch up with that cycle by this very distinguished conductor.
