Valery Gergiev by Alexandra Shapunov
A great symphony can delight with melodic splendor and thrill with its sheer power. Bruckner provides this and more in a colossal work that journeys from the depths of darkness to heroic heights. Sonorous themes soar in its first movement, an ensuing scherzo grips with its titanic power, and huge brass chorales accompanied by pounding timpani herald its exhilarating finale. Composer Hugo Wolf called the symphony “the creation of a giant, surpassing in spiritual dimension and magnitude all the other symphonies of the master.” Hear it and you will certainly agree.
