Bruckner: 7. Sinfonie ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Christoph Eschenbach

This is Bruckner's finest achievement and an absolute masterpiece. One of the greatest symphonies ever composed.

As a former euphonium, baritone horn, tenor tuba, or whatever folks are calling that instrument this week player, it does my heart good to see a rare instance of this instrument being used in orchestral music, and the solo in the second movement is beautiful and deeply moving.

I've heard that instrument called many different things. Baritone horn, euphonium, tenor tuba, Wagner horn. I think it's the only instrument in the world with an identity crisis.

[@beckr11]

It's a Wagner Tuba. This piece is famous for highlighting that instrument in instrumental "choirs".

[@bryangl1]

To confirm, it is a Wagner Tuba, It was developed/invented (or so history claims) by Wagner for use in his famous, and unique, Ring Cycle, but appears in some other of his operas So it started its life as an orchestral (symphonic) instrument, which is where most of the music world (at least, outside the USA) is familiar with seeing/hearing it. The more widely it's used, the better - it's a great instrument.

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

@@bryangl1 "but appears in some other of his operas" No it does not. It ONLY appears in the Ring. And he DID invent them, that is not a "history claims" scenario, it's a fact. He conceived them in 1853 and the first set was finally manufactured in 1874, ready for the Bayreuth premiere of the complete Ring. Then Bruckner used them in Symphonies 7-9, Strauss in his Operas "Guntram", "Elektra" and "Die Frau ohne Schatten" and his symphonic poems "Don Quixote", "Ein Heldenleben" and the "Alpine Symphony". Schönberg scored for them in the "Gurrelieder" and Stravinsky in "The Firebird" and "Sacre".

Celibidache once said:" Bruckner was the only one, who found the little cosmic wing, which forms the polyphonic structures.No other composer, except maybe Bach or Mozart, had these abilities.It is the pure absolutism.He knew exactly, where he had to put his musical inspirations." I was 16 the first time I heard Bruckner.And every time it feeling for me like a flight into the universe and a journey to the master.There is no more deep intention than Bruckner in presenting magical music.No one before him, no one behind him.

Bruckner's symphonies reign supreme. No composer understood the orchestra better than him. There is formality in his music, because it's written for the concert hall, not the opera. His inspiration was the sonority of the large orchestra, not the form, not new harmonies, not innovation.

[@jazzporridge1506]

Classy wee bravo from Eschenbach to the Wagner tubas at the close of the 2nd Mvt. Well deserved.

[@annakimborahpa]

Although Bruckner's 7th contains the traditional four movements of a standard symphony, with clever subtlety Anton broke the mold by composing a kind of hour-long triptych: (1) A Moderato first movement that lasts somewhat over twenty minutes; (2) An Adagio second movement that lasts somewhat over twenty minutes; and (3) A Scherzo and Finale that combined last somewhat over twenty minutes. Perhaps part of the great popularity of this symphony is due to the psychological satisfaction of listening to two long movements followed by two shorter movements, reflecting a timeline unique in the Austrian's oeuvre. Otherwise, Bruckner usually composes a long, grand finale for his symphonies that act as an apotheosis of the previous movements. Perhaps Jan Sibelius had Bruckner's 7th in mind when in his Third Symphony he actually compressed the Scherzo and Finale into one single movement of a triptych. Wonderful performance and recording here.

[@mr-wx3lv]

Would have been interesting to see how the finale of the ninth would have turned out, had he completed it. We're looking at those colossal previous three movements. Could Bruckner really have had the inspiration and the skill to bring all that material to a mighty climax? Alas , we'll never know, but he taunted us with the sketches he left us...

[@albertomarin5445]

[@JaseBach]

The nice surprise about this performance was that it went rather well, apart from a somewhat sluggish start. Mr Eschenbach is known for his unconventional choice of tempi and disorganized rehearsals. Here, the performance was disciplined and the interpretation well conceived. Mr Eschenbach's unpopularity with musicians (especially in Philadelphia) might have been due to the influence of his mentors, Szell and Karajan, the two most autocratic conductors the world has known. They got way with it, but not Mr Eschenbach, who is talented and accomplished but not on the same level as his mentors. It also doesn't help that instead of dressing like a gentleman in a tail suit, he dresses like Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter films. Still, his platform manners and conducting skills are impeccable. One can readily appreciate why the boards of orchestras are clamoring to hire him, because there are very few elderly German/Austrian/Swiss conductors left to conduct Beethoven, Brahms and Bruckner. Bruckner symphonies can seem overlong and monotonous to non-Germanic and non-Catholic audiences (he used the same ground plan from symphony no. 0 to 9), but this performance is well-paced as well as well-played. Bruckner wrote his symphonies to glorify God and to renew one's faith. In the olden days, this interpretation would be regarded as a resounding failure, as only three out of nearly 300 commentators mentioned the word God (one of which was a rhetorical thank God for this...) or its equivalent in other languages. I suppose in this agnostic age, whether this performance is spiritually uplifting or not doesn't seem to matter.
