Celebration of the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Brucknerhaus Linz

Exactly 50 years to the day after its opening, the Brucknerhaus Linz celebrates the half-century of its existence with a grand concert. The Viennese Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Zubin Mehta, will play a fitting and monumental 'birthday serenade' in the form of Anton Bruckner's Symphony No. 7 in E major, which he completed one day after his 59th birthday in St. Florian and which was premiered in Leipzig on 30 December 1884. As his ninth symphonic work, it finally brought Bruckner his long-awaited breakthrough as an internationally recognised composer. The symphony also brought good fortune to the concert hall named after him on the Danube: it was performed, at that time also by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and conducted by Herbert von Karajan,on 23 March 1974 as part of the festive concert celebrating the opening of the Brucknerhaus Linz.
