Bruckner 0

Thursady December 15, 2005 - Concertgebouw Amsterdam

Liszt: Tasso, Lamento e Trionfo
Liszt: Totentanz for piano and orchestra
Bruckner: Symphony nr. 0

Barry Douglas, piano
Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Iván Fischer (conductor)

Great performance of the Totentanz. I thought my recording on cd by Thibaudet and Dutoit was unsurpassable, but this live-performance was better. The orchestra played only once before the 'Nullte' of Bruckner (in the sixties with Haitink) which was before my time. Not Bruckners best symphony, but good enough for regular playing.
