Kurt Sanderling conducts Bruckner Symphony No. 7
Kurt Sanderling
A great performance by Kurt Sanderling, wonderfully flexible from the opening notes, with superb balance and warmth of string tone, only lacking the second movement’s climactic cymbal clash.

A great performance by Kurt Sanderling, wonderfully flexible from the opening notes, with superb balance and warmth of string tone, only lacking the second movement’s climactic cymbal clash.
June 2018
Sanderling’s interpretation of the Adagio is spacious but never seems unduly slow, the performance conveying both expressiveness and spirituality. The depth of tone of the violins is remarkable and the playing of the solo flute in the coda is as poignant as any performance I’ve heard.
