Visiting the UK: Lucerne Festival Orchestra
The final London performance of Claudio Abbado and the Lucerne Festival Orchestra: Mozart and Bruckner, recorded in 2011 at the Royal Festival Hall.
From The Royal Festival Hall, London on 11 October 2011.
Claudio Abbado's last concert in London with his Lucerne Festival Orchestra in Mozart's 'Haffner' Symphony and Bruckner's Fifth Symphony.
On two nights in October 2011, the seventy-eight year old maestro brought his handpicked orchestra to The Royal Festival Hall to give legendary performances. As one reviewer wrote of the Bruckner: "Abbado gave a performance that 鈥� in terms of ensemble, expression and flexibility 鈥� was among the most astonishing any of us are likely to experience...... A vision of infinity, a collapsing of time and space into a single point of brilliance and intensity."
With original concert presentation by Louise Fryer.
Presented by Martin Handley.
