LSO Principal Guest Conductor Daniel Harding leads the LSO in Bruckner’s Third Symphony, the work which marked a major artistic breakthrough for this mighty sound-architect.
Bruckner dedicated his third symphony to fellow composer Wagner, of whom he was unashamedly in awe. By his own admission, Andsnes ‘came very late’ to Mozart’s piano concertos: ‘I somehow was not mature enough to enjoy this music fully … now it is the greatest joy to play.’ Mozart’s gift, unmatched by anyone since, was to make music of exquisite beauty and craftsmanship appear effortless; but so much lies underneath the trademark serene simplicity.
