Marek Janowski and Augustin Hadelich
Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)
In Anton Bruckner’s Seventh Symphony, the Berliner Philharmoniker can explore the full spectrum of music-making, from intimacy in chamber music passages to its characteristically powerful tutti sound. Like Bruckner’s work, Mendelssohn’s violin concerto also emerged from the Romantic period – yet it inhabits a completely different sound world, filled with light and radiance. Conductor Marek Janowski is particularly highly regarded for his work in this repertoire. Augustin Hadelich, celebrated for his wonderfully lyrical sound at his debut three years ago, returns to the Berliner Philharmoniker as soloist.
