The 2025 Brucknerathon Playlist

This time, we decided to go retro by presenting a Brucknerathon entirely on LP record. All but three of the recordings were newly pressed audiophile LPs that have been released in recent years. It will give critical listeners an opportunity to detect the subtle differences inherent in analogue reproduction.

++ In three cases, we went back to vintage LP recordings that were never commercially transferred to compact disc.
