About This Event
Poor, homesick and misunderstood, Anton Bruckner plunged into despair during the winter of 1875. From the depths of his anguish came astonishing proof of his triumph of will: the composer’s spirited Symphony No. 5. For their second night at the BBC Proms, Kirill Petrenko and the Berliner Philharmoniker fill the Royal Albert Hall with a work designed on no less grand a scale. Here the sternness and warmth of the composer’s four movements make for a majestic whole, concluding with one of the most overwhelming denouements in all of music. Before it, the BBC Singers, celebrating its centenary this year, offers the most sublime of palate-cleansers: three of Bruckner’s most radiant motets, inspiring testaments to the faith that kept his creative flame alive.
