Tchaikovsky 4
Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony begins with a shattering brass fanfare — the “fate" theme that is heard in three of the work’s four movements. Violinist Irina Simon-Renes tells us what in particular moves her about Tchaikovsky's symphony, a work that dramatizes the power of fate.

Bruckner 7
Up until the premiere of his Seventh Symphony, real success had evaded Anton Bruckner — but the tides changed with this work. To this day, the Seventh is likely his most popular work — and quite rightly so! Violinist Korbinian Altenberger shows how Bruckner unfolds a magnificent theme right from the beginning, unfurling it into a kind of endless melody.
