Monumental – Wagner & Bruckner

When Marek Janowski conducts Bruckner, the concert hall is transformed into a place of musical revelation. Hardly any other conductor of our time has devoted himself so uncompromisingly to the symphonic repertoire. The focus is on Bruckner's Ninth, the unfinished last symphony by the late Romantic Austrian composer – a legacy of compelling energy. It culminates in an adagio that hints at distant worlds. The ideal complement to this is Richard Wagner's »Siegfried Idyll«, which Bruckner also admired. Wagner's music listens to the inner self and touches the listener with its exquisite sound culture.
