Anton Bruckner: Symphony No. 8 in C minor (1890 version, ed. Nowak)
ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Symphony Orchestra
Semyon Bychkov (conductor)
Semyon Bychkov conducts the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Symphony Orchestra in Brucknerβs Eighth Symphony. The composer described the finale of his symphony β the last he would ever complete β as βthe most significant movement of my lifeβ. Itβs the culmination of a career, perhaps even of an era: music of βblazing calmβ and impossible grandeur in which the shattering terror of the opening finally finds not just resolution but transcendence.
