MOZART Piano Concerto No. 20 in D minor, K.466
BRUCKNER Symphony No. 6


Japanese pianist Mitsuko Uchida, one of the foremost Mozart pianists of our age, plays the composer’s mysterious, stormy, proto-Romantic D minor piano concerto, a work owing much to the composer’s sensitivity to operatic drama and emotion. Bruckner’s seldom heard Symphony No. 6, written between 1879 and 1881, was the work he considered his boldest, though only the second and third movements were performed during his lifetime. Gustav Mahler led all four movements—but with cuts—in 1899, in Vienna; the first complete, uncut performance was given in 1901, in Stuttgart. Energetic, lyrical, and expansive, the Symphony No. 6 is a uniquely absorbing example of the composer’s monumental symphonic style.
