Music reviews of Bruckner: Symphony No. 7Music Review: Well-balanced, beautifully played, warm, and appropriately religiousI guess I will take this release as an opportunity to stop (at least for now) my "stop the madness" tirades. If record companies want to waste their time and resources duplicating releases, let them. For, when it comes to it, the labels, like any business, are economic animals, driven by consumer spending patterns. And if people are buying these releases, why would the labels stop? For the most part, I think the orchestral label movement is a dangerous trend, because all these orchestras are just going to be releasing recordings of the same works. For example, the Boston Symphony, the New York Philharmonic, the Chicago Symphony, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra have all released recordings of the Mahler Sixth. Both Chicago and Philadelphia have released Shostakovich Fifths. New York, Boston, Cincinnati, and Chicago have all released recordings of Daphnis and Chloe. It is a shame, really, because what will motivate these small orchestras to produce more thought-provoking releases of new music or masterpieces that are not often recorded? Additionally, with so many releases being poured into an already glutted market, it makes the prospect of record buying all the more daunting. At the same time, however, the general quality of the releases and interpretations is high, and if these records help orchestras bring in additional revenue while introducing this music to a new generation of listeners, I fail to see any problem. Furthermore, Haintink, who has traditionally produced great Bruckner, should have the opportunity to reach new audiences, especially when Phillips continues to make it difficult to find his older recordings. And finally, when both the performance and interpretation is as fantastic as presented here, there really seems no reason to complain.
