Artiste: Rémy Ballot

The Youth Orchestra of Upper Austria under Rémy Ballot play Bruckner's 8th with extended intensity at the monastery of St Florian. 

Concert reviews are of their nature very subjective and, indeed, sometimes it’s hard to believe that different reviewers were at the same concert. So it is always gratifying to be able to provide the reader with an objective fact: at over 90 minutes, this was probably the longest lasting performance of Bruckner’s third symphony ever performed – certainly longer than any recorded performance.
