About The Concert

Bruckner's popular “Romantic” Symphony takes the listener on an emotional and philosophical journey with themes of humanity’s interactions with nature and a grandiose orchestral landscape. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to hear this popular work conducted by one of the world’s foremost ‘Brucknerians’. The great Canadian composer Jacques Hétu wrote his riveting Organ Concerto for the inauguration of the Winspear’s own Davis Concert Organ in 2002. This concert opens with a celebratory welcome march from Wagner's opera Tannhäuser.
