"Penible Partiturtreue geht Hand in Hand mit gestalterischer Phantasie und übergreifender architektonischer Disposition - Tugenden, die sich vor allem im formal ausgreifenden Finale bewähren. Eine Spitzenaufnahme!"

"A marvellous disc in sound that doesn't quite do the music making justice.

Wand is from the school of Brucknerian's that believe in flexibility of tempo and this can lead to many exciting climaxes due to prior relaxations. The Berliner Philharmoniker play their hearts out for Wand with deeply committed playing. Compared to van Zweden (who unquestionably is given better sound), this is by far the richer and deeper musical experience. One only has to sample the string scales preceding the brass fanfares of the first movement of both versions to hear which orchestra is on a visionary journey of the soul and it is one of many instances where the details add to the conception of the whole conception. Spacious, yet mindful of the need to maintain structural coherence as well as a certain grandeur and sweep, Wand chooses the ideal pulse. Sometimes the there is a greater adoption of the tempo inflections than some might feel is indicated by the score - whether one feels this is a convincing approach is largely a matter of taste but (as someone who is more naturally at home with a "straighter" approach, as idealised by Karajan) there is little that will jar with the vast majority of listeners.

The andante has a naturalness that is quite in keeping with the spirit of the occasion, though it cannot be said that details are left unattended. The Scherzo and Trio is well done as well, although some might feel the trio is a little slow on its feet (as with the performance of the ninth symphony) but this is a minor quibble in context. The finale's opening as Wand, ably abetted by the Berliners, manages to evoke the material from previous movements whilst introducing the new ideas - the sense of arrival at the climaxes is unquestionable and leaves one in no doubt about the wisdom of previous interpretative decisions."

"The series of live recordings of Bruckner symphonies with Günter Wand and the Berlin Philharmonic released in SA-CD hybrid by RCA/BMG/Esoteric (Japan) is unquestionably one of the finest recordings I've ever heard--and I've only listened to the CD layer. The sound is not equally impressive for each release (Bruckner 4, 5, 7, 8, & 9 are represented), but taken as a group, these define the true sound of a close perspective on the world's greatest orchestra--these recordings will probably make you believe it, too! The rapport between the players and Maestro Wand is palpable. This is what trust sounds like.

Having occasionally performed with another top orchestra, I feel quite certain that these recordings will give you an impression of what it feels like to be involved in those special moments on stage. Sit back and enjoy, but you will be drawn in even if Bruckner is not your preferred repertoire."
