N EWSL ET TER IMZ MEMBERS NEWS CLASART CONTINUES BRUCKNER CYCLE WITH THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRA AND FRANZ WELSER-MÖST "It seems there's no composer Franz Welser-Möst cares about more than Bruckner. […] At every moment, all one sensed from conductor and orchestra were respect and affection for the score." (The Plain Dealer). THE EIGHTH SYMPHONY – A MONUMENT CARVED FROM MUSICAL TONES Considered by Anton Bruckner as the artistic climax of his career, the Symphony No. 8 followed in the wake of the triumphs celebrated by his 7th Symphony and Te Deum. Yet the conductor put aside the original version of the work – which Franz Welser-Möst conducts here – when his friend the conductor Hermann Levi rejected it. The original version was first performed in 1954 and first published in 1972. Recorded live at Cleveland's Severance Hall with the Cleveland Orchestra under its Music Director Franz Welser-Möst, this performance marks the fourth installment in the orchestra's Bruckner cycle, which is being captured for posterity on DVD by Clasart. While the Fifth was recorded at the Baroque monastery of St. Florian near Linz, Austria, and the Ninth in Vienna's Musikverein, the Seventh and the Eighth were recorded in Cleveland. Austrian conductor Franz Welser-Möst has been Music Director of the Cleveland Orchestra since 2002, and has extended his contract to 2018, the orchestra's 100th season. In addition to his duties in Cleveland, Welser-Möst has been General Music Director of the Vienna State Opera since September 2010. For more information, please contact Katja Raths at raths@tmg.de

Rossini’s fizzy Overture to The Thieving Magpie begins with a snare drum solo, while Ravel’s famous Boléro is based on a metrical pattern played unrelentingly by this instrument, which builds into a flagrantly erotic wave of energy. With these two pieces as pillars, the concert will also include Cuban composer Julián Orbón’s Versiones Sinfónicas, which pays homage to three different sound worlds: the Spanish dance of the pavane, medieval processional song, and Afro-Caribbean music. Rhythmic drive also plays a key role in Leonard Bernstein’s Divertimento, composed in 1980 for the centennial of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and combining such dances as the waltz, mazurka, and samba, as well as the blues.
