Edinburgh International Festival
Beethoven and Bruckner: Nine Symphonies
Rhythm and energy pervade tonight's pairing of symphonies from the Usher Hall. Wagner spoke of Beethoven's Seventh as "the apotheosis of the dance", and it was Wagner's death in 1883 that inspired Bruckner to write one of his most intense adagio movements. The new work's triumphant premiere finally established Bruckner's celebrity. Introduced by Donald Macleod. Beethoven Symphony No 7 in A, Op 92 Scottish Chamber Orchestra, conductor Charles Mackerras Bruckner Symphony No 7 in E
