Description:

This is the first release of the "Sony Classical Masterpieces Collection 1000". This is a live recording of Günter Wandt and the North German Radio Symphony Orchestra performing at the "Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival". The long reverberations of Lübeck Cathedral, the venue for the performance, add to the virtuosity of the performance, and the religious sublimity of Bruckner's music emerges as if it were a revelation from heaven in this moving performance.
