The Philadelphia Orchestra: Viennese Masters March 14, 2013

Venerated conductor Christoph von Dohnányi leads an all-Austrian program of two Viennese masters—Schubert and Bruckner. Schubert’s beloved “Unfinished” Symphony has taken a rightful place among the standards of the repertoire, even if we may never understand why he abandoned the work after just two enduring movements. Bruckner’s Fourth Symphony was his first great symphonic success, yet he never seemed to be satisfied either, continuing to improve and tinker with the final score. The result is a breathtaking work that inspires audiences every time it’s performed.
