SCHUBERT Symphony No. 7 in E Major
Guest conductor Mario Venzago
Pianist Jonathan Biss
Hear American pianist Jonathan Biss play Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 25 in C major.
We’ll also enjoy two reconstructions.
Franz Schubert’s Seventh Symphony only ever existed as a piano score during the composer’s lifetime. Rossini’s Overture to Il Viaggio a Reims was once lost to time, only recently reconstructed by scholars. Maestro Venzago will conduct Richard Dünser’s new, completed arrangement of Schubert’s Symphony No. 7.
