Semyon Bychkov conducts Richard Strauss’s “Alpine Symphony”
Perhaps the most spectacular climax in orchestral literature occurs when the summit is reached in Richard Strauss’s Alpine Symphony. Overwhelming impressions of nature and instrumental virtuosity also characterize the other scenes of the work, which Semyon Bychkov conducted here with the Berliner Philharmoniker. Composer Detlev Glanert also made his Philharmonie debut at this concert with his Theatrum bestiarium.
