"... van Zweden sits right inside the DNA of this extraordinary music ... exciting in-your-face music making." - Classic FM "... van Zweden is now the leading interpreter of Bruckner's symphonies and has trained his orchestra to perform them brilliantly. This is a leading recommendation." - BBC Music Magazine "... warm and clear sound ... it is difficult to think of a finer version of the First Symphony in the catalogue ... a deeply impressive Bruckner Fourth. It is one of those performances in which the reading and its realization are of a piece: a finely considered concept that elicits orchestral playing which is at one with the music itself." - Gramophone "Exceptional engineering ... natural-sounding timbres and an extremely realistic sense of acoustic space ... the recording quality (of Symphony No. 8) is quite magnificent. This performance will be presented in an intelligent, sympathetic and profoundly musical manner. This is a very important recording from an increasingly important conductor, fully deserving of the accolade 'Outstanding.'" - International Record Review This 11 disc box set compiles all of Bruckner's symphonies, marvellously presented by the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra under rising star conductor Jaap van Zweden. The individual symphonies, previously released, have all been praised both for the quality of the performances by conductor and orchestra as well as for the sound quality, making this complete survey a primary reference for anyone interested in such repertoire.
