Hiroshi Wakasugi - Bruckner: Complete Symphonies (2020) [10CD Box Set]

2020 was the 85th anniversary of the birth of the conductor Waksugihiro From his leftover live recording, who left the world in 2009, is the legendary Brookler Chickle, with the N Song who wanted to be a CD. The 20th anniversary of its establishment in 2020, the ALTUS label has been warming for a long time. This is a complete CD version except for 2 songs.
Brookler Chickles was performed during the 98 year period from 1996 (N Hibiki was 70th anniversary foundation) to 10th anniversary of the opening of Suntory Hall. entitled "Catholic of Two Centuries", a ambitious program that combines one Brookner symphony song with Messian work calling a huge topic. The rehearsal is all done in the Suntory Hall and is a luxurious project that will fully interpret and become used to the field, and the 3 songs of the 3rd phase were a great completion concert where the conductor, orchestra and venue were combined to play the best Brookler.
At that time, we had a live recording plan for all Brookner songs on the BMG label, but unfortunately it remains in CD only the first and second performances (7th and 3th), making it difficult to find today. In this CD formation, the ALTUS label carefully mastered and commercialized based on the sound source stored in the NHK line from the BMG label recording. It is a big point that you can enjoy all songs at the first time, and you can also enjoy the new sound of the two existing songs.
