Schubert in C-Dur

In the organizer's words:

"Clara, I was happy today. A symphony by Franz Schubert was played at the rehearsal. If you had been there. It's impossible to describe. These are human voices ... like a novel in four volumes ..." Robert Schumann wrote this to his future wife after an orchestra rehearsal in Leipzig. To this day, this symphony is considered a masterpiece of its genre. It is impressive not only because of its length of almost an hour, but above all because musically it encompasses everything that still thrills classical music audiences today. Starting with the solemn opening of the horns, through grand musical arches and rousing melodies to the sophisticated use of the instruments.
The flute also makes a sophisticated and impressive appearance in the 19th century flute concerto. Composed by the then Kapellmeister of the Gewandhaus, it will be played by Kathrin Bäz, principal flute of the Dresden Philharmonic Orchestra.
