Symphonic class

Richard Egarr
Antwerp Symphony Orchestra
Sat 13.05.2017 – Multiple times
Sat 13.05.17

For cleverness or surprise, flamboyant early music expert Richard Egarr is not shy. This time he steers deFilharmonie through the turbulent waters of early Romanticism, keeping Bach's contrapuntal brio as a compass in hand. From the Mediterranean sunshine of Mendelssohn's Italian Symphony to the chorale-like grandeur of Schumann's Second Symphony, chances are that under Egarr's hands, these masterpieces will sound like never before. You will have to hear it to believe it.
