Bundesjugendorchester

The National Youth Orchestra of Germany brings together two cult works of modernism: Arvo Pärt's Fratres, a meditative ritual that, like all of this composer’s music, immediately remains in our ear – and Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony, whose brimming tension culminates in a finale whose power ingeniously and ambiguously alternates between adaptation and hidden criticism. Two impressive works that bring the 2027 Easter Festival to a perfect conclusion.
