    • he Bruckner symphony was a transcendent experience. Ticciati, perhaps the most spiritual as well as naturally gifted of the younger conductors, drew playing of endlessly fascinating precision, ensured a marvellous blend at a marvellously adjusted pace, and, though he couldn’t be faulted for the sense of architectural cogency imparted, was at the same time supremely able to let the music breathe: an organism. It is, I think, Bruckner’s most perfect symphony, and this performance had me feeling it is his greatest.
