INTERVAL
'Symphony No.4 in E Flat Major - Romantic', Bruckner |
| Performance Notes | Daniel Barenboim and his Staatskapelle Berlin open three consecutive evenings in which a Mozart piano concerto is paired with a Bruckner symphony.
We shall never be able to do anything like that, proclaimed Beethoven when he heard Mozarts dramatic, minor-key Piano Concerto No. 24. As with Mozart in his concertos, with each of Bruckners symphonies came a keener focus of vision and honing of craft.
With the Fourth, Bruckner really came of age, bringing a newfound confidence in the glowing first movement, while its statuesque Andante is a moving premonition of loss. |
