Bruckner - Symphony No. 0 (1869) - Young, Philharmoniker Hamburg [Oehms]

Bruckner: Symphony No. 0 in D minor 'Nullte'
Hamburg Philharmonic, Simone Young
Oehms - OC685

Simone Young has had a huge impact on the Hamburg Philharmonic and the Hamburg State Opera, since starting as their Chief Conductor in 2005.

This is the sixth release in her survey of Bruckner’s Symphonic works, a series which has been met with great critical acclaim.

“Young prevents the music from sitting down too much in the main...The sound of the orchestra is smooth and well balanced in the live recording: brass chorales are sonorous and wind solos eloquently projected...Not quite full Brucknerian coherence as yet, but here welded into a satisfying whole.” BBC Music Magazine, ChristmasIssue 2013 ****

“[Young] presides over a conscientious, deeply considered reading, beautifully played by her Hamburg orchestra” Gramophone Magazine, Awards Issue 2013
