Staatskapelle Berlin & Barenboim supremely eloquent in Mozart and Bruckner

Ken Ward, 17th April

Bruckner wrote to the conductor, Artur Nikisch, before the first performance of his 7th Symphony in 1885 that there are many important tempo changes that should be observed, but not marked in the score. Daniel Barenboim has taken Bruckner’s advice to heart and his performance was, for the most part, masterly in its use of flexible tempi.
