Overview
Thielemann, widely regarded as the leading Brucknerian of our age, opted for the more lively early original Linz version of this symphony. Buckner himself called it a cheeky wench and said about the finale: Never again have I been so audacious and bold. Christian Thielemann has been the Principal Conductor of the Staatskapelle Dresden for six years. In that time, and even from before, he has amassed a comprehensive catalogue of recordings. The Bruckner cycle with the Staatskapelle Dresden is his most ambitious and most well-received series yet. Recorded from the Philharmonie Munich, 6 September 2017
