About This Item
A brilliant orchestra and an excellent conductor When such a pairing is made for a Bruckner symphony, you can expect something special. The Linz master's sweepingly radiant eighth symphony is in the best hands with Hartmut Haenchen and the Royal Danish Orchestra from Copenhagen. With a beautiful sound and a powerful punch, as well as with fast tempos that blow every speck of dust out of the grandiose score, this is a masterful interpretation! Hartmut Haenchen's high intellect and musical integrity have secured his place in the forefront of musical life. Born in Dresden in 1943 he was raised in the post-war German Democratic Republic. Despite the severe restrictions imposed by the former East German regime, Haenchen was granted special permission to work with the West's finest ensembles, including the Berlin Philharmonic and the Concertgebouw Orchestra. InchHartmut Haenchen is undoubtedly one of the great Wagner conductors of our time.Inch (Opernwelt) Album Tracks 1. I. Allegro Moderato 2. II. Scherzo. Allegro Moderato 3. III. Adagio.
