Werk: Symphonie Nr. 73 in D-Dur "La chasse", Hob.I:73

A recreation of the final concert attended by Johannes Brahms marks the closing programme of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment's 40th season. 

Sous la direction de Marko Letonja, l'Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg, la basse Pavlo Hunka et le Chœur National d’hommes d’Estonie ont offert une interprétation bouleversante de la Symphonie n° 13 « Babi Yar » de Chostakovitch.

Sir Mark Elder conducted the Hallé in an unusual programme of music themed around hunting. There were many excellent performances, most memorably in Britten's Our Hunting Fathers, which added substantial depth to the evening.Assistant conductor Jamie Phillips began proceedings with a solid account of Haydn’s Symphony no. 73, “La Chasse”.
