Description:

Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra Archives Series: De Priest's Bruckner! Depriest is a man of strong character who accepted the position of Music Director of the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra even though he was not in perfect physical condition. He was a benefactor who led the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra with his rich musicality and personality in difficult times. Although the maestro had made a name for himself as a Mahler player, his interpretation was unrelated to the Mahler interpretation that expressed doubts about life with a mixture of resignation and disappointment, which was the most popular at the time. The same is true of his interpretation of Bruckner, and De Priest's Bruckner is also filled with a broad affirmation of life and a hymn to nature. The Bru 2 is the Haas version. Hats off to its speed, freshness, and youthfulness. Bull 9 is a pleasant performance that moves forward with a light step. It is like standing on the shore of a clear lake and taking a deep breath in the beautiful air. Tobu Land System
