Wagner, Bartók and Vaughan Williams by Wagner, Richard, Bartók, Vaughan Williams, lör 05 nov 2022, Från (2022/2022), Dirigent Edward Gardner, Symphony Center Chicago, Chicago, USA

As Great Britain endured the Blitz in 1943, the 71-year-old Vaughan Williams produced his Fifth Symphony. To celebrate 150 years since the composer's birth, Edward Gardner conducts this work of warmth and gentle contemplation. Christian Tetzlaff, “a meticulous and refined virtuoso” (The New York Times), presents Bartók’s rhapsodic Second Violin Concerto. Wagner’s serene and somber prelude to Act 3 of Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg opens the program.
