Does anyone out there have the DVD-A of Giulini's Bruckner with Chicago, and care to comment on it? It's one of the only "great performances" on DVD-A I haven't managed to track down yet. (It's amazing how few actually made it to DVD-A before the wind was taken out of its sales.) I do not have the Bruckner but I want to note that, although there were few classical DVD-As, many are outstanding. Kempe's Strauss, Previn's Messiaen, etc. Noted. I have them both, plus all of Abbado and Barenboim's Beethoven cycles, Kleiber's Beethoven, Aimard's Messiaen, Harnoncourt's Bach, and Chailly's Mahler 8. So I think I am missing: Giulini's Bruckner Chailly's Mahler 2 Ozawa's Strauss (easily findable) Harnoncourt's Dvorak (ditto) Perhaps Alsop's Brahms on Naxos? Anything else which is of the first rank as performance?

He means which particular performance - there are several, including a famous one on Nonesuch.

Sorry everyone,
Just a simple joiner at heart.
Just reading the CD it says Opus 36 (1976) the conductor was David Zinman. London sinfonietta.
hope that helps and I am not making too much of a fool of myself.
Shaun
PS
It didn't go down too well on the construction site! Mind you Radio 4 didn't either.

The one conducted by the composer on PolskieRadio SACD ( http://www.sa-cd.net/showtitle/3931) and on Lipinksi Blu-ray ( http://lipinskisound.com/products/gorecki-symphony-no-3-symphony-of-sorrowful-songs/). You may need 3 more DSP8000s as I have not heard it in stereo.  Kal

Not sure if it's only me, but sadly I can't find anywhere that sells the CD or the Blu-ray disc - please help.
Cheers
