With this landmark release, Nathalie Stutzmann becomes one of the few women and the first with a major U.S. orchestra to record a cornerstone of the Bruckner repertoire. Since 2022, she has shaped the ASO into a "pristine, precisely leveled" ensemble (ArtsATL), fusing American precision with European depth. Following their acclaimed Dvorák 9, praised for it's "explosive" energy and "bold, raw" textures, she brings her acclaimed Wagnerian insight from Bayreuth (Tannhäuser, Rienzi) to Bruckner's 4th. According to Bachtrack: "With her intuitive gifts as a Brucknerian... she has interrogated every bar of these scores for herself." Stutzmann has called Bruckner one of her favourite composers and has a deep connection to his music.
