A gigantic fresco of sound that took the composer two years to complete, this symphony is imbued with an immense breath of fresh air and an unprecedented wealth of detail. It calls for first-rate orchestras and conductors. This composition reaches a pinnacle of combinatorial audacity and appears, not only as the first great peak of his earlier works but also as a summation: Bruckner seems to have transposed Bach's spirit into the symphony and referred to it himself as his "masterpiece of counterpoint" due to the performance of the Finale. Understanding this symphony does not require a meticulous analysis of its form. "Even the non-believer will understand that such a work could not have come into being without the unwavering Christian faith that strengthened Bruckner in moments of extreme despair."

Anton Bruckner’s works have been close to Eugen Jochum practically all his life. Not only was he the first conductor to record all nine symphonies of the master of St. Florian: Bruckner’s Seventh Symphony was even on the programme of the concert by the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra with which he opened his career at the age of 23. A performance of the Fifth Symphony led in 1932 to his engagement in Berlin as director of ‘’Musical Hour on the Air’’. And when Jochum introduced himself in 1934 as the new General Director of Music in Hamburg at the Convent Garden in Kaiser-Wilhelm-Strasse, he once again made Bruckner’s Fifth Symphony into his visiting card.

Jochum’s work with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam, which he had already conducted many times and whose leadership he took over jointly with the young Bernard Haitink on the death of Eduard Van Beinum, was more than a mere interlude. In the radio broadcast Jochum praises the ‘’extraordinarily warm, full-blooded pleasure in making music’’ of the Amsterdam orchestra, its ‘’special feeling’’ for Gustav Mahler, and, no least, its’’great love’’ for Bruckner. The recording we present here with this sumptuous orchestra is one of the greatest record ever devoted to Bruckner.
