Title: Bruckner by Jochum
Review: These CDs contain performances of the nine Bruckner symphonies.Of these 3,4,7,8,9 are remarkable, with 4, 8 and 9 beingmasterpieces. The performances by Eugen Jocum and the DresdenStaatskapelle orchsetra are well-designed, and played at tempithat seem to represent the composer's intentions. The recordingquality is good, except for dynamics: the sound volume ison the low side. One needs a high grade system for adequatereproduction, especially given the wide dynamic range andtimbral subtlety characteristic of Bruckner.
