Title: OT: DVD coming of Bruckner 5 from St. Florian w/ F. W-M/Cleveland Orch.
Post by: barry guerrero on February 05, 2007, 07:31:44 AM
Well, that's pretty much the message. I'm certainly going to get this. As some of you may know, Welser-Most has already recorded a very fast, powerful, and exciting Bruckner 5th with the London Phil., recorded on tour at Vienna's larger Konzerthaus venue. With Cleveland playing in St. Florian, this DVD of B5 should be awesome. Ironically, this may have the Japanese tuba player who was released by the Vienna Phil., as he got the Cleveland job after Ron Bishop retired. If not, Ron Bishop has been rockin' the bottom of the Cleveland brass section for several decades - great player. FYI.
