KHCD-2010-046 (STEREO) - Bruckner: Symphony in f minor (Study Symphony 1863) (first commercial recording); Overture in g minor (1862-63) - London Symphony Orchestra/Elyakum Shapirra - Bruckner's so-called "Study Symphony" composed between February and May 1863, was written before he fell under the spell of Richard Wagner and, in spite of the intelligible influences of Beethoven and Mendelssohn, there are more than mere anticipations of Bruckner's later symphonic form and style. This recording, from an EMI-Electrola LP, inscribes the first commercial release of the Symphony in f minor. The still-seldom recorded Overture in g minor, composed within the same period as the Symphony, is performed with appropriate stylishness by the London Symphony conducted by Elyakum Shapirra. |
