St. Louis Symphony Orchestra: Bruckner's Fourth

St. Louis Symphony Orchestra: Bruckner's Fourth at Powell Symphony Hall

Some concert mornings ask you to slow down, and this one is a good reason to do it. On February 26, 2027, at 10:30 AM, the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra brings Bruckner's Fourth to Powell Symphony Hall in St. Louis. It is a daytime invitation to trade the usual routine for a full orchestra and a program built around one major symphony.

The draw starts at the podium. David Danzmayr conducts Bruckner's Symphony No. 4, a work that rewards being heard live, in a room, with an orchestra in front of you. A recording can hand you the notes. It can't put you in the same space as the musicians while the music takes shape around you. If you care about symphonic music, or you're curious about it and want a real reason to try it, a program like this gives you a clear place to begin.

There is also a second piece to look forward to. Kevin Puts's Bassoon Concerto features soloist Andrew Cuneo, which gives the morning a spotlight moment alongside the symphony. That pairing makes the program feel like more than a single-title outing. It is something to plan around, talk about on the way out and bring up again later with whoever came with you. Bring a friend, a parent or someone who has been meaning to hear the orchestra. Then make a morning of it in St. Louis.
