Living Legends
»New worlds open up in Anton Bruckner's music. With Zubin Mehta, they cast an intoxicating spell.« With these words, Miriam Damev summarized her impressions in the daily newspaper »Der Standard« after Zubin Mehta conducted Bruckner's 9th Symphony at the Vienna Konzerthaus in November 2021. The orchestra back then was the Orchestra del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, and when the star conductor, who once trained in the legendary Hans Swarowsky academy in Vienna, stages the same work this time with the Vienna Philharmonic, another great moment is guaranteed - after equally acclaimed performances of Bruckner's 4th and 7th symphonies in the same constellation in the last two seasons. The soloist in the preceding violin concerto is another prominent old master, Pinchas Zukerman.
