Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on PSO’s Bruckner Symphony No. 9 : “a masterpiece”

Jeremy Reynolds reviews Manfred Honeck and the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra’s new Bruckner: Symphony No. 9 recording in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:

“To get right to it, it’s a masterpiece. Music director Manfred Honeck and the orchestra recorded the symphony last year during three live concerts — reviewed here — and again partnered with recording engineers from Soundmirror of Boston. Bruckner’s ninth is a beast. Even in its unfinished, three-movement state, the symphony runs just over an hour. The work’s architecture is cathedral-like, with cavernous, sprawling stretches matched by more intimate, ornate flourishes and melodies. The orchestra’s playing expands and concentrates to match, conjuring sensations of pure grandeur and veiled mystery throughout.”

—Jeremy Reynods, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
