Anton Bruckner
Symphony No. 4 in E-Flat
"Romantic"
(Nowak Edition)
The Philadelphia Orchestra
Wolfgang Sawallisch
EMI CDC 5 55119 2
Recorded at the beginning of Sawallisch's tenure in Philadelphia, this Romantic showcases all the beauty of tone of the Philadelphians, which comes very close to a very appropriate organ-like tone throughout the performance, thanks to their noted round and honeyed sound palette.
A tribute to a great, slightly underrated conductor, who will turn 89 this August.
This CD was bought at the music lovers' heaven that is Academy Records on E 12th St., NYC in March 1996.
