City of Athens Symphony Orchestra
The Austrian composer Anton Bruckner is undoubtedly one of the major figures of late Romanticism. His symphonies, animated by subtlety and grandiosity, are refined works of art that portray the composer’s existential and spiritual quest. His fourth symphony premiered in 1881, in Vienna, and it has been extremely popular ever since. The composer himself defined it as “Romantic”, thus stating his intention to celebrate the unsurpassable natural beauty, pulsating with a spiritual dimension, and the simple pleasures of a life close to nature, valued across the German literature in the early 19th century. Great composer Hugo Wolf, appreciative of the magnificent vision of the fourth symphony, ranks Bruckner among Beethoven and Liszt, at a time when his work is not yet widely known.
