Anton Bruckner's Symphony no.4 in E-flat major ('Romantic') is one of the composer's most popular works. Manfred Honeck and the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra offer us a fresh and powerful new interpretation of this great music.

This release is the third in the highly acclaimed 'Pittsburgh Live!' series of multi-channel hybrid SACD releases on the FRESH! series from Reference Recordings.

For more than 116 years, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra has been known for its artistic excellence. It has a rich history of the world’s finest conductors and musicians. Past conductors include the legendary names of Reiner, Steinberg, Previn, and Maazel. This tradition was furthered in the autumn of 2008, when celebrated Austrian conductor Manfred Honeck became Music director of the Pittsburgh symphony orchestra.
