CD-764(1)  FURTWÄNGLER: BRUCKNER: Symphony No. 8 in c

"Although there are later Furtwängler-led versions of the Eighth with much to recommend them, and superb versions of other Bruckner symphonies, if I had to live with only a single example of Furtwängler's way with Bruckner it would be this one. This performance combines moment-to-moment intensity with an overall sense of architecture and inevitability that carries you through the almost eighty minutes with complete involvement."

-Henry Fogel in Fanfare
