London Symphony Orchestra - Symphony 9 [CD]

Bernard Haitink is internationally renowned for his interpretations of Bruckner and is widely recognized as the world's leading Bruckner conductor. Bruckner's symphonies are often described as 'Gothic cathedrals in sound,' an apt description considering the composer's devout faith and early vocation as an organist. He died before he could finish his Symphony No.9 but within it's three movements can be found some of his most complete music, imbued with a sense of deep solace and resolution.
