BRUCKNER - Sinfonia No. 8 in Do minore • Thielemann
I Allegro Moderato
II Scherzo. Allegro moderato - Trio. Langsam
III Adagio. Feierlich langsam; doch nicht schleppend
IV Finale. Feierlich, nicht schnell
"The playing is magisterial with weighty sonorities, yet Thielemann encourages a transparency in the filigree string writing of the Scherzo of almost chamber-music delicacy. However, the Adagio and 'Solemn' Finale are spaciously conceived rather than slow...Any new Thielemann recording of an Austrian masterwork with this orchestra is an event."
Historical recordings
A collection focusing on historical singers in rare recordings - mostly in the form of “portrayals”. The singers featured here are the ones who have made opera legendary. Hence the name “Il Mito dell’Opera” - “Legendary Opera”
News from the Past
This series features rarely performed operas, symphonic music and chamber works. Many of these recordings were world première recordings. Hence the title “Novità del Passato” – they are all “News from the Past”.
