Past event

This concert exudes poise and seasoned artistry. The Bamberger Symphoniker, a cornerstone of the international stage, join forces with Manfred Honeck for a programme defined by authority and profound insight. Midori, a violinist of enduring global stature, offers a luminous and uncompromising account of Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto. This is followed by Bruckner’s Ninth Symphony – unfinished yet all-encompassing – rising as a monument of spiritual resonance. Renowned for their soulful Bruckner interpretations, Honeck and the Bambergers masterfully balance weight with silence, delivering a performance of immense conviction. A truly transformative experience.
