Info

Festive radiance, symphonic solemnity and challenging virtuosity maintain a perfect balance in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Piano Concerto in C major. The work opens the concert given by the Staatskapelle Berlin conducted by Christian Thielemann which features a benchmark interpretation by the legendary pianist Rudolf Buchbinder who can look back on a career of more than 60 years. The second half is devoted to Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 4 whose sonorous natural idylls including the “song of the great tit Zizipe” (Bruckner) communicate a “religious and mysterious Romanticism à la Lohengrin” in the words of the composer.
