On Thursday 12th November at 8.00pm at The Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford University Orchestra are joined by renowned Conductor Rémy Ballot. 

Wagner - "Die Meistersinger" Overture 

Bruckner - Symphony No. 4 

OUO joins forces with Conductor Rémy Ballot at the Sheldonian Theatre for a majestic programme of Wagner and Bruckner. The concert features Bruckner’s narrative 4th Symphony, evoking medieval scenes of hunting parties and woodland beauty through vast soundscapes that bring the legendary Austrian wilderness to life. Self-dubbed ‘Romantic’, the spirituality of nature is displayed by signature dramatic swells and rich emotional shifts. We precede this with Wagner’s stately “Die Meistersinger” Overture, the resplendent introduction to his traditional comic opera. From regal marches and joyful, bustling energy, it is a symphonic journey packed with brilliance.
