But yes, the MPhil famously put on a cycle with all the new editions -- I have Mme. Meyer's book as well... so that I should have known about.

I saw the mention of the Bruckner cycle in Gabriele Meyer's book about the orchestra; in fact there was a poster advertising the cycle.<br /><br />Fortunately we have a near complete Bruckner cycle from Rosbaud, the one with the Südwestfunk-Orchester which you already talked about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5607352.post-55253381839012192672019-05-08T07:11:13.621-05:002019-05-08T07:11:13.621-05:00I might have been sloppy in suggesting that this w...I might have been sloppy in suggesting that this was the Orchestra's first Bruckner cycle *in performance*. The MPhil is not a Bruckner orchestra for nothing; under Hausegger and Kabasta they also played lots of Bruckner. And of course later, under Celi and Wand as well. <br /><br />Or are you suggesting that these Rosebaud performances were recorded? That I would *love* to hear more about, jflhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03017753357752263113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5607352.post-87541256435971552602019-05-01T13:16:56.442-05:002019-05-01T13:16:56.442-05:00This is not exactly Munich Philharmonic's firs...This is not exactly Munich Philharmonic's first Bruckner cycle. There was one just after the war under Hans Rosbaud. Also, Rudolf Kempe was preparing one when he died unexpectedly - too early! In fact, he managed to record symphonies no. 4 and 5, both great performances - these and the Korngold symphony being IMO his best recordings in Munich.<br /><br />Jurowski is, indeed, not a known Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
