Bruckner 11: The Complete Symphonies

 

Bruckner 11: The Complete Symphonies box set has the following works recorded by the Wiener Philharmoniker conducted by Christian Thielemann:

No. 0 in D minor “Nullte”

No. 1 in C minor

No. 2 in C minor

No. 3 in D minor “Wagner”

No. 4 in Eb major “Romantic”

No. 5 in Bb major

No. 6 in A major

No. 7 in E major

No. 8 in C minor

No. 9 in D minor

No. 00 in F minor “Study Symphony”

The gimmick here is that two incomplete works have been added to the 9 works usually considered to be the complete symphonies. All of this was issued earlier in 5 single Blu-ray discs. Now you can get all 5 in a single box for a savings. Never before was so much confusion created in the recording industry. See our Alphalist if you are interested in buying a particular symphony—we have 5 earlier titles listed there as they came out.

There’s plenty more confusion about this project in the numerous YouTube videos available. It seems everything was recorded at the Golden Hall—sometimes used as a studio and sometimes before a live audience (in part during the Covid pandemic):

Caution: it’s getting harder and harder for Amazon to keep up with the multitude of classical Blu-ray titles on the market. So keep your wits about you as you shop.
