About
Christian Thielemann and the Staatskapelle Dresden have already released the Bruckner Symphonies Nos. 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 and continue their Bruckner Cycle at the Philharmonie in Munich with a ‘radiant and majestic’ (The Guardian) performance of the Symphony No. 3, also known as the ‘Wagner Symphony’. Thielemann, a more than experienced Bruckner interpreter, has once again proven himself, with masterly control over a shining wind section. With ‘moments of disruptive suspense and intense audio density he displays the full musical maelstrom of Bruckner’s Symphony No. 3’ (Münchner Merkur).

August 2017
Thielemann’s approach to tempos is slightly more flexible than in [his recording of] the Fourth Symphony, although his choices are judiciously handled and do not detract from the overall sense of line…the orchestral playing is in a class of its own, superbly balanced and exquisitely articulated
October 2017
Thielemann’s performance is to be warmly welcomed as another majestic and compelling case to establish this work as a true masterpiece.
