Details

Music Director Nathalie Stutzmann flexes the sonic muscle of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra in Bruckner’s heroic Fourth Symphony, a piece that conjures the mystic wonders of a forest primeval and explodes in a blaze of sunshine. Bruckner dedicated his "Romantic" Symphony to an Austrian prince. A century before, C.P.E. Bach dedicated a concerto to another royal—King Frederick the Great, the flute-playing military genius. Harpsichordist C.P.E. Bach worked in the King’s court and wrote genial, high-spirited flute concertos to perform alongside his royal boss. The ASO's own Principal Flutist Christina Smith performs as soloist.
