Description:

The world-class Bruckner performance of the legendary Bruckner Cycle is now available on analog vinyl in the order of the year of performance. The legendary Bruckner Cycle was performed by Wakasugi and the NHK Symphony Orchestra over three seasons of nine performances from 1996 to 1998, which coincided with the 100th anniversary of Bruckner's death, the 10th anniversary of the opening of Suntory Hall, and the 70th anniversary of the founding of the NHK Symphony Orchestra. The ambitious program, entitled "Two Centuries of Catholicism," combined a Bruckner symphony and a Messiaen work for each performance. The Maestro's enthusiasm was extraordinary, and his interpretation deepened and perfected with each performance, resulting in a recording of the complete Bruckner cycle that will go down in Japanese performance history. In 2020, ALTUS released the complete works on CD for the first time, and it became a hot topic, winning a special prize in "Record Geijutsu" magazine. The NHK recordings were remastered for LP by ALTUS, cut and pressed by Toyo Kasei.The Bruckner Cycle is divided into three periods in the order of the year of performance so that you can relive the Bruckner Cycle of that time. You can enjoy the world-class artistry of Hiroshi Wakasugi with the charm of vinyl recordings. King International
