Bruckner Symphony No. 4, 鈥楻omantic鈥�

Tabea Zimmermann, viola
Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra
Daniel Harding, conductor

In their second and final concert at the 2022 麻豆社 Proms, the Berliner Philharmoniker and Daniel Harding play Bruckner's Symphony No. 4, 鈥楻omantic鈥�. First, they support Tabea Zimmermann 鈥� whose playing is, in the words of The Strad, of 鈥榖reathtaking beauty鈥� 鈥� as she rediscovers a Cold War classic: the intense melancholy and sardonic humour of the Viola Concerto, written in 1985 by the Russian dissident composer Alfred Schnittke. It couldn鈥檛 find more committed champions.
