Clarinetist

A few months after the birth of his son Siegfried, Richard Wagner composed the Siegfried-Idyll with which David Afkham and the Staatsorchester Stuttgart open this symphony concert. It was premiered as a birthday present for his wife Cosima in the stairwell of their villa in Tribschen. Wagner noted in the score: "Tribschen idyll with Fidi birdsong and orange sunrise." Anton Bruckner, eleven years his junior, was a great admirer of Wagner. His Fourth Symphony, which he gave the nickname "Romantic", was his long-awaited breakthrough. Shifting between dreamy passages and waves of dramatic intensification, it heads towards a radiant finale.
