Mozart’s last piano concerto comes together with Bruckner’s final symphony. Ever-building, ever-reaching upwards, Bruckner’s music carries an elemental force. The third movement was the last the composer was to complete, a prophetically self-titled ‘Farewell to Life’ with Bruckner still at work on the symphony’s fourth movement the day he died.
