Marek Janowski conducts Bruckner’s Eighth

Marek Janowski once called Anton Bruckner a “Baroque Romantic”. It is precisely this blend that the conductor brings to life so convincingly in his performances: he reveals the complex layers of the music while allowing its rich tonal palette to shine through. This season, Janowski takes on the monumental Eighth Symphony – a work characterised by sweeping arcs of tension and dynamic waves, shifting between doubt and faith in spiritual redemption.
