Programme Details
Ryan Wigglesworth conductor
J STRAUSS II arr Schoenberg Kaiser-Walzer, Op 437
BRUCKNER arr Anthony Payne Symphony No 2 in C minor
Anthony Payne breathes new life into Schoenberg’s tradition of chamber reductions with his reimagining of Bruckner’s Symphony No 2. Scored for a slightly larger ensemble than the one used in Schoenberg’s arrangement of the Emperor Waltz, Payne’s version reveals the luminescent appeal of Bruckner’s symphonic writing in a more intimate setting.
