In a few summer weeks, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart hastily composed three large symphonies, unaware they would be his last. These symphonies are often seen as a culmination of his creative power. Some theorize they form a single work in three chapters, expressing different moods: joyful grandeur, tragic drama, and overwhelming power.

Three days after the premiere of Shostakovich's Tenth Symphony, the Soviet Composers' Union debated whether the work was too modern, too old-fashioned, or too critical. However, the panel missed the grim satire used by Shostakovich. In contrast, Brahms' Violin Concerto, performed by Hilary Hahn, is a celebration of violin sound. Cristian Măcelaru conducts this program, marking his farewell as chief conductor of the WDR Symphony Orchestra.
