Description
Romantic Rapture
Simone Young conducts Bruckner
Szymanowski’s Violin Concerto begins with magical, shimmering sounds that seem to have flown straight out of Stravinsky’s Firebird ballet.
It’s music born in the crucible of Romanticism, Impressionism and something more: a truly unique voice. Szymanowski sends his soloist soaring to ecstatic heights and in Arabella Steinbacher we have the ideal violinist to project the rarefied beauty of this luxuriant and lively concerto.
The euphoria continues with Bruckner’s finest and most beautiful symphony. If you’re a Bruckner fan there’s really no more to say – you’ll want to hear Simone Young conduct this music. If you’re still to be won over, brace yourself for an intoxicating experience. Bruckner transcends Beethoven to build a noble architecture on the grandest scale – flamboyant and contemplative, earthy and spiritual. Sublime.
