No Curse on this 9th
The Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester with Hebert Blomstedt performs Anton Bruckner's 9th symphony. Love recording at the Royal Albert Hall for the BBC Proms on September 1, 2010. I've been listening to Bruckner ever since Pope Benedict tuned me onto him.
* The title "No Curse on this 9th", refers to Beethoven's curse on a composer's 9th.
