Bruckner, Symphony No.7

"Grandiose, unaffected, expansive, majestic, immovable..." - Christian Thielemann's description of Anton Bruckner's music vividly captures its essence and uniqueness. And he himself captures the soul of the great romantic composer in his interpretation of Bruckner's Seventh Symphony with the Munich Philharmonic. Recorded live at the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden on 14 November 2006, the concert also features three orchestral preludes from the opera "Palestrina" by another late-romantic composer, Hans Pfitzner (A05512085 / Length: 25')
