On the occasion of Bruckner's 100th day of death, Pierre Boulez conducts his eighth Symphony. The performance took place in the Stiftskirche of St. Florian where Bruckner was first exposed to the learnings of music. Boulez' much discussed interpretation is unique in its clarity of the musical structure without losing the rich expression of the symphony.
