Berliner Philharmoniker, Simone Young, Vida Miknevičiūtė

When Simone Young conducts Bruckner, she prefers to perform the original versions of his symphonies: »Perhaps these are not as perfect as the later versions. But they have a modernity that the later ones lack.”


In this concert she presents the original version of the Second Symphony from 1872 and combines it with Wolfgang Rihm's Das Gehege.

The expressive, dark and enigmatic one-person play is about a woman who, on the eve of German reunification, frees an eagle from captivity, tries to seduce it and ultimately kills it.
