Bruckner鈥檚 Symphony No. 4 is as vividly colourful as the composer鈥檚 original scenario for the work (later withdrawn) with its knights, maidens, hunting and dancing. In their second and final concert at the 2022 主播大秀 Proms, the Berliner Philharmoniker and Daniel Harding explore a symphony subtitled the 鈥楻omantic鈥� by the composer himself and one that draws deeply on the German Romantic tradition of Weber and Wagner. First they support Tabea Zimmermann 鈥� whose playing is, in the words of The Strad, of 鈥榖reathtaking beauty鈥� 鈥� as she rediscovers another Cold War classic: the intense melancholy and sardonic humour of the Viola Concerto, written in 1985 by the Russian dissident composer Alfred Schnittke. It couldn鈥檛 find more committed champions.
