Mozart Violin Concerto No. 5
Bruckner Symphony No. 7

Stanisław Skrowaczewski conductor
Hilary Hahn violin


Composers known for the utmost purity and serenity here give expression to far more human, earthy feelings – all the more refreshing for it. Bruckner’s Seventh Symphony is his most agile and delicately etched, containing in its beautiful Adagio a heartfelt eulogy for Richard Wagner but thrusting with full-blown, changeable and excitingly brash music elsewhere. In his Fifth Violin Concerto, Mozart used sounds and techniques from the highly fashionable and exotic music of the Turkish Ottoman empire to create one of his most earthy and vivid pieces.
