5.0 out of 5 stars Mastery of an idiom., May 30, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Symphonies 3-5 / Symphony 35 Haffner (Audio CD)

The DG cycle of Celibidache's Bruckner is a facinating one, and a relativly easy way into the sound world of Celibidache. Here you have the greatest conductor since maybe Mahler navigate the complex metaphysical romanticism of Bruckner with consumate ease. These CDs are a good preparation for the other-worldly deeply profound revalations of Celibidache's '80s, 90s concerts of Bruckner on EMI.

5.0 out of 5 stars wild abandon in the scherzo of no.4, June 25, 2005

This review is from: Symphonies 3-5 / Symphony 35 Haffner (Audio CD)

I've obtained no.4 separate from the entire collection- where Celi conducts the Swedish Radio Symphony orchestra.

This performance contradicts the usual sterotypes assosciated with this great conductor.The Scherzo is taken at a frenetic pace.Surely,it has never been faster! The energy is irresistable and the other movements are done with a similar sense of verve and rhythmic energy.Herbert Von Karjian's EMI version is alarmingly tentative in the 2nd subject group of the ist movement where the celibidace has a rustic gait which ensures that the tension doesn't drop.
