Not too long ago it was announced that Mario Venzago would embark on a new Bruckner symphonies cycle, and B4 and B7 were released. Now just a few months later, his B0 (1869 version) and B1 (1866 "Linz" version) will be released two weeks from now, although with another orchestra: Tapiola Sinfonietta.
Although his first B4 and B7 are unremarkable to my ears, the coming release still arouses much interest in me, as the early symphonies can provide refreshing experiences.
On the other hand, King Record in Japan will issue a local release (KICC967) of Wand's B9 with RSO Stuttgart originally issued by Profil. Whether it will be just a local copy of the original release or a newly remastered recording is not known at this moment.
Hanssler will reissue in their Premium Composers series 2 Bruckner recordings coupled together: Kurt Sanderling's lovely B7 and Giulini's somewhat less successful B9, both with RSO Stuttgart.

The Sanderling B3 is one of my favourites.
