The celebrated Bruckner cycle by the Hamburg Philharmonic under Simone Young will see its completion during the 201415 season. On 30 August 2014, this mature, practiced Brucknerian orchestra recorded Bruckners radiant Seventh Symphony in the Laeiszhalle, heard live on this CD. With the beauty of its themes and its moving homage to Bruckners great, intimidating model, Wagner, this Symphony, ranking among the composers finest orchestral statements, offers a particularly impressive listening experience.
