About the Concert

"Clara, today I was in bliss. During the rehearsal, a symphony by Franz Schubert was played. If only you had been there. It is indescribable. It's like human voices... like a novel in four volumes..." This was written by Robert Schumann to his future wife after an orchestral rehearsal in Leipzig. To this day, this symphony is considered a masterpiece of its genre. Impressive not only for its length of almost an hour, but above all musically, it encompasses everything that continues to captivate classical music audiences. Starting with the solemn beginning of the horns, through grand musical arcs and captivating melodies, all the way to the sophisticated use of instruments. Sophisticated and impressive is also the flute, specifically in the flute concerto of the 19th century. Composed by the former conductor of the Gewandhaus, it is performed by Kathrin Bäz, the principal flutist of the Dresden Philharmonic."
