About
Rémy Ballot and the symphonies of Anton Bruckner, performed at Bruckner's place of work, the basilica of St. Florian in Upper Austria, are an extraordinary collection of artistic abundance which becomes manifest for the fourth time in this CD release. In 2016 the annual Brucknertage festival centered around the ‘Sixth’, and once again the musical youth of the Upper Austrian Symphonic Youth Orchestra enjoyed the great honour of giving a celebrated performance in this oneof-a-kind setting. Their youthful vigour and professionalism combined with the intuition of Rémy Ballot creates a unique and exciting interpretation, and appends another worthy opus to this series which has been critically acclaimed and honoured with numerous prestigious international awards.

July 2017
Although this is still a very spacious interpretation, the pacing of the symphony's faster music is appropriate to the reverberant acoustic...and slower sections are nurtured with sensitivity and warmth. Few passages sound slow in the context of the performance as a whole, and the result has an inner logic that's very compelling.

Without the length limitations of the old LP side, and with the advantages of hi-res surround sound, this undoubtedly makes an impact. I was impressed by this disc.
