Anton Bruckner No 7


From what I have read in the net, Karajan ended his recording career with this CD.
Karajan was one of my favorite conductor, and this is definitely the best 7th symphony of Bruckner.
With Karajan's interpretation and and the magical tool of the Wiener Philharmonic pretty much assures us of the great sound.
The 7th is reputedly the "easiest" and "smoothest" symphony for any one new to classical music. The composer's long phrases are so beautiful and it is great symphony when one needs to unwind after a hard days work! There are some symphonies may sound too "heavy" for one to digest..
