國臺交在上個樂季的「NTSO顛峰之作」演奏了布魯克納的第九號交響曲。在這一場排入布魯克納最知名的作品之一──第七號交響曲，加上在過去已經演奏過第二、三、四、六、七、八號交響曲，國臺交探索布魯克納的脈絡也越加清晰。
布魯克納捲入當時歐洲樂壇的派系路線之爭──「華格納派」與「反華格納陣營」，發表的交響曲命運坎坷，未獲好評，直到第七號交響曲才扭轉局面。布魯克納把此曲題獻給巴伐利亞的路德維希二世（此人是華格納的鐵粉），並在萊比錫首演，由尼基許擔任指揮。尼基許演出此曲之後，誓言此生要致力於讓布魯克納受到世人肯定。但是布魯克納不想讓此曲太早在維也納演出，因為他怕向來批評他不遺餘力的樂評漢斯利克給予惡評，斷送了這首交響曲。所以他讓第七號交響曲先在慕尼黑演出，累積好評，屆時就算漢斯利克口出惡言，造成的傷害也有限。布魯克納的想法沒錯，經過這一番安排，第七號交響曲廣受好評，也讓布魯克納的作曲生涯更上一層樓。
蕭士塔高維契的第二號鋼琴協奏曲將由出生在貝爾格勒的鋼琴家薇威克擔任獨奏，她在16 歲到維也納學習，此後定居這座音樂之都，在金色大廳登台多次，也與賈維、薩拉斯泰等指揮家合作，在現代音樂用力甚深。
這首鋼琴協奏曲是作曲家送給19歲兒子的生日禮物，論深刻，或許不如其他作品，但是快板樂章動感十足，行板樂章深情款款，是一首很能引起聽眾共鳴的作品。（撰文／吳家恆）

NTSO's performance of Bruckner's Symphony No. 9 was a highlight of the previous season. In this concert, we present one of Bruckner's most famous works: Symphony No. 7 in E Major. Looking back, NTSO has explored many works by Bruckner, including his symphonies No. 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8.


Since he was unfortunately caught between the trends that supported and disliked Wagner in the European music scene at the time, Bruckner found it difficult to publish his symphonies. His seventh symphony was the one that ultimately brought him accolades and recognition. Bruckner dedicated the title to Ludwig II of Bavaria (who was a major fan of Wagner) and premiered it in Leipzig, with Nikisch Artúr as the conductor. After conducting this piece, the conductor vowed to make Bruckner known to the world. However, Bruckner did not want to present the composition in Vienna too soon, as he was afraid that music critic Eduard Hanslick, who had always been harsh on him, would heavily criticize the piece and ruin it. So Bruckner performed his Symphony No. 7 first in Munich where it accumulated much praise, therefore even if Hanslick later attacked the symphony, the damage would be limited. With this clever maneuver, Symphony No. 7 was widely acclaimed and took Bruckner's composition career to the next level.

Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed in this concert by Belgrade-born soloist Anika Vavic. Vavic, who has made significant contributions to the modern music scene, studied in Vienna at the age of 16 and has since settled in the musical capital. She has made numerous appearances in the Golden Hall and collaborated with conductors such as Paavo Järvi and Jukka-Pekka Saraste.
This piano concerto was a birthday gift from Shostakovich to his 19-year-old son. While it may not be as impressive as his other works, the Allegro movement is very vivacious, and the Andante movement is deeply affectionate. This is a piece that can easily resonate with the audience.
