Movie Reviews of Bruckner: Symphonies 8 & 9 [DVD Video]
Movie Review: Things to Know
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD release should be of interest for a few reasons. First, please note that there are two Bruckner symphonies here, numbers 8 and 9. These are the same performances previously released by Sony on video. Both the 8th and 9th have appeared on VHS and Laser Disk. However, as far as I know, only the 8th has previously appeared on DVD. These recordings were made very late in Karajan's life. The next thing to note is that the audio has been reworked. My understanding is that Sony took the audio tracks and played them in the hall where the recording was originally made and re-recorded them to better capture the hall's ambience and provide a surround sound audio track. Finally, and not least importantly, the video is PAL and not NTSC and will not play on many US DVD players. Note that DG has issued a DVD set of the same symphonies with Karajan in NTSC. The performances on either Sony or DG are wonderful.
