Presented by Ian Skelly from the Royal Albert Hall on 5th September 2016

Mozart: Piano Concerto No. 24 in C minor, K491
Bruckner: Symphony No. 4 in E flat major (Romantic)

Staatskapelle Berlin
Daniel Barenboim (piano and director)

Daniel Barenboim and his Staatskapelle Berlin pair a Mozart piano concerto with a Bruckner symphony. 'We shall never be able to do anything like that,' proclaimed Beethoven when he heard Mozart's dramatic, minor-key Piano Concerto No. 24.
As with Mozart in his concertos, with each of Bruckner's symphonies came a keener focus of vision and honing of craft. With the Fourth, Bruckner really came of age, bringing a newfound confidence in the glowing first movement, while its statuesque Andante is a moving premonition of loss.
