In the organizer's words:
The Third Symphony is considered Anton Bruckner's pain child. The three versions of this hymn-like, at the same time mysterious work prove how much the composer struggled over it. François-Xavier Roth, conductor of this performance, considers the first version from 1873 to be the most successful - because it shows the original Bruckner. Roth has made a name for himself as an interpreter of Bruckner who not only brings the sonic power of this music to life, but also its nuances. Also on the program: the world premiere of a work by the Slovenian Vito Žuraj.
