I probably never heard a more flat execution.

Have to agree. Very bland.

Could you please post bruckner symphony 6 from 6th september? With Gergiev...

What a drab performance - one of the top Bruckner orchestras in the world as well. Harding is a complete "nobody" conductor - OK, so the Concertgebouw, the Vienna, the Berlin et al work with him but doesn't that just say it all for the way standards have plummeted.

Pretty sure this orchestra would have sound the same if not better with no conductor.
