Barenboim, Staatskapelle Berlin: Bruckner Symphony No. 5 & Mozart at Carnegie Hall

About the Event

Prepare to be dazzled as Barenboim and his Berliners reach the midway point in their cycle of Bruckner's complete symphonies.

The musical complexity of Bruckner's Fifth is a byword among musicians, as the composer's expertise in counterpoint and harmonic structure lead him to explore ever further, to heroic effect. Mozart's Sinfonia concertante for wind instruments starts the program in suitably virtuosic style.
