Thielemann - München - Bruckner
Tuesday November 29, 2005 - Concertgebouw Amsterdam
Münchner Philharmoniker, Christian Thielemann (conductor)
Some years ago I heard Thielemann for the first time in a concert with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. That was a very good one, with the Symphony Pathetique of Tschaikovsky. And now he conducted again a wonderful played concert with a great performance of Bruckners Seventh. Thielemann is conducting like a man who wanted to become the goal keeper of a soccer team, but weren't succesful and became conductor as second choice. But it is very effective! The orchestra does exactly what he wants, and he gave a very open, clear Bruckner with big differences between soft and loud. Every time I hear a Bruckner symphony life I think that he's the best composer of symphonies... More Bruckner will follow next month.
It didn't understand why Thielemann conducted the Metamorphosen with much more string players as the prescripted 23.
R. Strauss: Metamorphosen
Bruckner: Symphony nr. 7
