Bach and Bruckner

From the blackest depths, Anton Bruckner reached out and struggled towards the light. He never made it, but in his Ninth Symphony, he left us one of the greatest spiritual odysseys in all music.
Juanjo Mena and the BBC Philharmonic's previous performances of Bruckner have won exceptional critical praise; Andrew Clements from the Guardian remarked how "the orchestra played superbly for him...it was Bruckner's Seventh Symphony that really gave the better sense of Mena's qualities".

You don't need to be religious to be moved by this music; or to be refreshed by Bach's joyous Cantata No. 147 which includes the famous chorale known as Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.
