Beethoven and Bruckner: Nine Symphonies
If Bruckner wrote a lightweight symphony, the Sixth is it: a lyrical but elusive work that is also the only one of the canon that he never felt the need to revise. Beethoven's
Pastoral is full of the sounds of nature, "a matter more of feeling than of painting", according to the composer. Introduced by Donald Macleod. Beethoven Symphony No 6 in F (Pastoral) Scottish Chamber Orchestra, conductor Charles Mackerras Bruckner Symphony No 6 in A
