Experience the monumental and the cinematic in a single powerful program. The concert opens with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra premiere of Adgilis Deda, a commissioned work by the exciting Canadian composer Samy Moussa. The evening then ascends to the epic scale of Bruckner’s “Apocalyptic” Eighth Symphony. Filled with majestic melodies, thrilling brass chorales, and profound stillness, this work is often described as a vast “cathedral of sound” and stands as one of the grandest achievements in the symphonic repertoire.
