After Haitink's complete recordings of the Bruckner Symphonies (mid 60's - early 70's), he re-recorded some symphonies at the start of the digital era with his Concertgebouw Orchestra (nrs. 8 & 9) and started to record a new series with the Wiener Philharmoniker. These recording series were halted (as was the Mahler-cycle with the Berliner Philharmoniker), but not before he had recorded Nrs. 3, 4, 5 and a third take of Nr. 8. This recording of the 8th makes an interesting comparison with his analogue and digital recording with the RCO and the just recently released live recording, again with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. As ever under the baton of Haitink, the orchestral playing of the Wiener Philharmoniker is of the highest quality. Enjoy!

Note: this post is the original release, with the original coverart, so not the budget series with the paired 3rd symphony.
