Cello soloist and conductor: Heinrich Schiff Haydn: Cello Concerto in C major Hob. VIIb:1 Bruckner: Symphony no. 7 in E major In the seventies Heinrich Schiff performed with such conducting legends as Abbado, Celibidache, Christoph von Dohnányi, Doráti, Harnoncourt and Sinopoli. Since the nineties, he himself has been conducting; today he is the first guest conductor of the Linz Bruckner Orchestra, music director of the Vienna Chamber Orchestra, and artistic director of the Mondsee Music ...Festival. For this concert he has selected a composition each by his compatriots. The young Joseph Haydn composed his cello concerto for the young solo cellist in the Esterházy court orchestra which was only rediscovered two hundred years later in 1961. Austrian Anton Bruckner completed his Symphony no. 7 in 1883 and because of its gorgeous cello melody, is now the most frequently played of his nine symphonies. Its popularity is also due to the magical slow movement with its dark sound of Wagner tubas, inspired by Wagner’s death.
