The tempo changes that we can hear in the "Gesangsperiode" of the Finale (end of the video) are absolutely relevant and musically necessary. Was the first "Hynais edition" of 1899 taken into account for this interpretation? www.abruckner.com/down/articles/articlesEnglish/coutonnicolasrefle/couton_reflections_on_tempo.pdf
No offense, but I personally feel that to be first touched by Bruckner's music, you ought to be a bit touched to begin with. Witness the notorious so called "Bruckner moment" on first hearing his music.
Buildup, suddenly loud, fanfare...quiet again. Repeat for an hour. Just never could get into Bruckner's musical vision. It just bores the hell out of me. I'll stick to other composers.
The 6th has the most epic and majestic first movement of them all

I want to hear this!
So do I!
The if unlikely overlap of Upper Austrian rusticity and cosmic processes. This is the paradox of Bruckner.
Very exciting project. You transposed the numbers in the dates of the Symphony No. 8. It is 1887 (not 1878) and 1890.
