Bruckner/Schubert - Symphonies - Wand, Günter (conductor)

"In Bruckner's music the architecture becomes 'visible', i.e. apparent to the ear, in the unambiguous opposition of blocks of sound, tempos and rhythms which, instead of flowing into one another, stand side by side like building blocks. That is why I hold it to be so important that the tempos be seen in a meaningful relation to one another. If that is not the case, no matter how 'beautifully' a Bruckner symphony is played or how good it sounds, the performance will lack something essential." (G.Wand)
