In September 2024, the music world celebrates the 200th anniversary of Anton Bruckner's birth in 1824. To coincide with the anniversary itself and following the release of Bruckner's Ninth earlier in 2024, Accentus Music releases this new recording of Bruckner's Symphony No. 2 with the Bamberg Symphony, this time under the musical direction of their conductor laureate Christoph Eschenbach.
Composed in a rather restless and pessimistic state of mind, Bruckner's Second oscillates between heartfelt prayers, desperate outbursts, helpless silence, and ecstatic dance scenes. This symphony, often overshadowed by Bruckner’s later works, reveals a unique glimpse into the composer’s evolving mastery of orchestral writing and his deep emotional landscape.
Anton Bruckner (1824–1896)
