This is an old recording 1954 under Varese's supervision. Robert Crafts version is fantastic and way more better sounding. Quote

paul secor Posted February 20, 2019 Report Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) On 2/19/2019 at 8:56 PM, HutchFan said: Now playing a recent acquisition: Bruckner - Symphony No. 7 / Tintner, RSNO (Naxos) This is the first recording I've heard by conductor Georg Tintner. I like his approach very much -- relatively transparent textures; less monumental, more "flowing." And there's no shortage of atmosphere, despite of the lighter touch. ...It's easy to hear Wagner in Bruckner, but I think Tintner's way with the music makes Bruckner's connection to Beethoven more pronounced. I remember when Tintner's Bruckner recordings on Naxos were first released and making a big splash. I read about them in Gramophone and the rest. It's odd that those days were 20 (!) years ago. And I'm just getting around to hearing them now. Better late than never, I guess. I have two Tintner Bruckners - Nos. 00 and 3 - which I've enjoyed listening to very much. My experience with Bruckner is limited, so my comment probably isn't worth a lot. I do like your "flowing" description. That's what I hear and like. Edited February 20, 2019 by paul secor Quote
