Albrecht Dümling on Pierre Boulez’ "Notations" Simon Rattle conducts Bruckner’s Symphony No. 7
Bruckner’s Seventh Symphony is one of the few works by the composer which was received with tremendous applause during his lifetime. This was due, for example, to the gloriously melodious first movement and the Adagio, whose escalating waves of sound are almost physically palpable. In this concert, Simon Rattle also performs a selection from Pierre Boulez’ Notations, orchestral miniatures whose range is spectacularly expressive.
