Bruckner's Symphony No 4, 'Romantic'

Domingo Hindoyan conducts the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic in Bruckner's only titular symphony, No 4, 'Romantic'. Violinist Timothy Chooi plays Bruch's Scottish Fantasy.

Domingo Hindoyan conducts the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic in Anton Bruckner's Symphony No 4 - the only symphony he gave a title to, 'Romantic' - in a concert given last month. But this is no programmatic pastiche of love and longing. Instead, Bruckner evokes images and moods from his beloved Austria's medieval countryside, replete with knights, nature, hunting and magic. In the first half, the Canadian/American violinist Timothy Chooi conjures up an intensely romantic nostalgia for the Caledonian Highlands by way of Max Bruch's equally Romantic Scottish Fantasy. Miriam Skinner presents.

Recorded at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall on 19 January 2023.
