Majestic Bruckner 8

BRUCKNER: Symphony No. 8 Concert Duration: Approx. 1 hour, 40 minutes (no intermission) What’s interesting about this concert: • The expansive sound of Bruckner’s Symphony No. 8 is the perfect way to experience the new acoustics of renovated Music Hall. • Composer Hugo Wolf remarked that “[the Eighth] is the creation of a giant…a complete victory of the powers of light over darkness.” • Conductor Donald Runnicles has been said to keep “orchestral colors shimmering in an ultra-subtle mist” (Washington Classical Review)
