3.0 out of 5 stars A well played but unexceptional Bruckner 8, 29 Aug 2007
By Mr. Christian Hoskins (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Bernard Haitink has been one of the greatest exponents of Bruckner's 8th Symphony over the last few decades, matched in his interpretative insight only by the likes of Günter Wand and Herbert von Karajan.

Unfortunately I don't feel that this live recording from 2005 captures Haitink at his best. There is nothing in particular to criticise in the performance: the symphonic structure is laid out expertly for us, and the playing of the Royal Concertgebouw (the orchestra with which Haitink was for so long associated) is of the highest order. It's just that I find the performance here slightly muted when compared with the best rival recordings, notably Günter Wand's.

Although recorded in SACD format, the sound quality is slightly cloudy, and the multichannel option doesn't add much to the experience. The disc is also playable on standard CD equipment. Incidentally, Haitink performs the Haas version of the symphony.
