布魯克納:第四號交響曲 / 芳斯瓦-澤維爾.羅斯 指揮 / 科隆古澤尼希管絃樂團

作曲家: Bruckner
指揮家: Francois-Xavier Roth

After the tremendous success of the 7th Symphony, Francois-Xavier Roth and the Gurzenich-Orchester Koln continue their Bruckner complete symphonies cycle. The ＂Romantic＂, as Anton Bruckner himself entitles his 4th Symphony, was composed in 1874 in the midst of a period of personal defeat. And he immediately doubted his work, describing some parts as ＂unplayable＂ and finding ＂the instrumentation here and there overloaded and too turbulent＂. It was only years later, after numerous revisions, that the Fourth was premiered and Bruckner achieved the success he had longed for with the public of the time.

In this recording, Francois-Xavier Roth opts for the original version from 1874 and shows the untamed fantasy of the work and its Romanticism in the sense of a fascinating intellectual period in which poets such as Novalis focused on the nocturnal aspects of reason, and in which art was regarded as essentially unfinished, involved in the process of becoming. Particularly in this first version, Bruckner's 4th Symphony presents itself as such: as a “neverending approximation”.
