“[Jaap van Zweden] is now the leading interpreter of Bruckner’s symphonies”, according to the BBC Music Magazine, and for this very special concert he will be presenting his very personal take on Bruckner’s glorious, magisterial and intensely beautiful Eighth Symphony. Van Zweden writes, "In my opinion, beauty is what Bruckner is talking about. Listening to beauty makes you clean inside". One performance only.
