A spiritual celebration of sound in the Grafenegg Auditorium: the Tonkünstler Orchestra of Lower Austria joins forces with a choir and soloists for an evening centered around the monumental music of Anton Bruckner – crowned by his sublime Te Deum for choir and orchestra.
The Grafenegg Auditorium is hosting a concert evening that brings the symphonic and spiritual dimensions of Anton Bruckner's music to life with particular intensity. The program begins with an early symphony that already hints at the tonal breadth and architectural power that would characterize Bruckner's later works. Monumental blocks of sound, lyrical islands, and suspenseful crescendos form a musical panorama of great expressiveness.
The program centers on the Te Deum for soloists, choir, and orchestra—a work of overwhelming energy and spiritual depth. Jubilant choirs, haunting solo passages, and the powerful orchestral voice combine to create a musical statement of extraordinary radiance. Under the baton of Yutaka Sado, the Tonkünstler Orchestra of Lower Austria and the Czech Philharmonic Choir Brno engage in an intense dialogue, carried by clear structure and emotional force.
For the audience, this evening will be an impressive encounter with Bruckner's world of sound: a musical journey between inner contemplation and eruptive festivity, which unfolds its full effect in the acoustically outstanding space of the Grafenegg Auditorium.
