A concert on tour, featuring Mozart’s sombre Symphony No. 40 — we don’t get to hear it that often! — a monumental Brahms Symphony No. 4, but above all Pfitzner’s three Palestrina Preludes, as you’ve never heard them before. These pieces, which were so dear to Furtwängler, are finally being performed in all their beauty.
