This recording of Bruckner's Eighth Symphony is from Sir John Barbirolli's last London concert, some 10 weeks before his death, when the conductor knew heart problems might overtake him at any time. What better way to say goodbye than with one of the greatest symphonies ever written? And this craggy, towering masterpiece is given as urgent a performance as you'll ever hear (complemented by vivid recorded sound). Pushing the tempi risks a grating superficiality, but Barbirolli more than gets away with it through sheer conviction (complete with podium stamping and trademark sing-alongs). The terrifying Scherzo, in particular, goes along at a lick, but what shivers are sent up the spine! The vast Adagio contains some messiness in the ensemble's playing, but give me this passion over "perfection" anytime. However, as Barbirolli's friend Michael Kennedy says in his sleeve note, the aging, ailing maestro didn't lose his sense of architecture and feeling for a phrase as the emotion flowed–the outer movements are characterized by awesome control as Barbirolli plots his course up the massive musical rock faces. Sickly swansong? No way! Favorite performances such as those by Haitink and Wand will feel a tad tame after this. ~Andrew Green
