Bruckner (1824-1896)

Description:

Newly discovered and completely premiered Matacic live in Milan, recorded in stereo! The hot and intense Bruckner No. 5 with unmistakable power and intensity! A must-see! Newly discovered and completely unreleased sound sources are now seeing the light of day! This is a live performance from Milan in 1983, two years before Matacic's death. The performance is so passionate and dynamic that it is hard to believe that it was in his later years. Even the complex fugue in the finale is a dash of sheer force and intensity! The finale, a complex fugue, is dashed with a forceful intensity. The performance is based on Matacic's own version, which is interestingly different from the 1970 studio recording with the Czech Philharmonic in which he used his own version, which is close to Schalk's version, and is closer to Haas's version. There is one short cut in the finale, but there are no additional cymbals or triangles, and the playing time is longer.Actual performance time (excluding applause, etc.): 1st movement 19:52, 2nd movement 17:21, 3rd movement 13:15, 4th movement 21:38 King International
