Masur Conducts Bruckner Orchestre National de France

France’s premier orchestra visits Birmingham with Kurt Masur, one of the last generation of authoritative conductors rooted in the great tradition of Austro-German classics. Bruckner’s Seventh Symphony opens like the hazy dawn of a hot summer’s day, gradually moving towards the searing heat of midday. Its slow movement concludes with a moving tribute to Wagner, who died in Venice whilst it was being composed. Hear it next to the haunting serenity of Mozart’s Twenty-third Piano Concerto with Louis Lortie as the soloist.
