Bruckner Symphony No. 1 180g (Vinyl)

& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Live Performance On 180g Vinyl LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Claudio Abbado conducts the Lucerne Festival Orchestra for this live performance of Bruckner's First Symphony during the 2012 Lucerne Festival. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The audience experienced Bruckner’s ground-breaking Symphony No. 1 in Lucerne’s new Concert Hall of KKL Luzern in a spectacular performance at the 2012 Lucerne Festival. This uncompromising interpretation of the First reveals the originality of the composer’s musical language & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Abbado uncovered the radical nature of the work with its fascinating accumulations of intensity and abrupt interruptions...Long and enthusiastic standing ovations at the end for the conductor and orchestra. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Die Welt & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;It is enchanting the way Abbado succeeds in revealing the Janus-faced character of the symphony...very pointed but highly elegant, in typical Abbado fashion, the pulsating, forward moving rhythms of the first movement, and truly dramatic the build-up to the first climax – these set the parameters of this interpretation. The wonderful Adagio proceeded in a tremulous yet warm cantabile, while the energetic Scherzo, with its introverted Trio, mirrored the relationship of the two earlier movements. The Finale, then, is an almost volcanic explosion... & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - NZZ, Peter Hagmann & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; • 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; • Made in Germany & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Lucerne Festival Orchestra & lt;br & gt; Claudio Abbado, conductor & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Anton Bruckner (1824-1896) & lt;br & gt; Symphony No. 1 in C minor & lt;/b & gt; (Vienna version, 1891) & lt;br & gt; edited by Gunter Brosche & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Zhu Xiao-Mei Bach: The French Suites 180g 2LP (Vinyl)

& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;180g Vinyl Double LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Johann Sebastian Bach plays a key role in the life Zhu Xiao-Mei – she is today one of the most significant interpreters of his music. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Recorded at Mendelssohn-Saal of the Gewandhaus zu Leipzig in May 2016, pianist Zhu Xiao-Mei performs The French Suites by J.S. Bach. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;It is with children in mind that I recorded these French Suites, always having heartfelt simplicity and purity in their mind. Children see the world with hope, optimism, and cast in light – much like Miró sees the world. I find a childlike purity in him, similar to what I hear in the French Suites. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;There is a quote by Miró that touches me enormously and makes me think a lot whenever I play, as it reflects something that may be the most difficult aspect of musical interpretation – and of art in general: & quot;To gain freedom is to gain simplicity. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Zhu Xiao-Mei & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; • 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; • Double LP & lt;br & gt; • Gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; • Made in Germany & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Zhu Xiao-Mei, piano & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) & lt;br & gt; French Suites (BWV 812-817) & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;br & gt; 1.
