(BIS SACD)
Bruckner played by a chamber orchestra? For a composer associated with the colossal, especially when it comes to orchestral forces, it seems an impossible contradiction. Yet when played with the transparency, flexibility and individual character of these admired Swedish musicians, the results are exhilarating. The second symphony dates from the start of Bruckner's time in Vienna, when his old enthusiasms for church music were yielding to a love of symphonic form, yet still with a sense of improvisation ? the organist in him never far away. If you have an obstinate resistance to Brucknerian weightiness, this recording offers a fresh, totally unturgid approach.
