Together with the Cologne RSO (WDR Sinfonieorchester) and then with the NDR Sinfonieorchester, whose principal conductor he was from 1982-1991, he produced outstanding recordings that retain their references status to this day. His Bruckner cycle with the Cologne orchestra in particular made Günter Wand's work internationally known.
