Anton Bruckner
Unlike other musical radicals such as Richard Wagner and Hugo Wolf, Bruckner showed extreme humility before other musicians, Wagner in particular. This apparent dichotomy between Bruckner the person and Bruckner the composer hampers efforts to describe his life in a way that gives a straightforward context for his music.
Conductor: Claus Peter Flor
Respected worldwide as a conductor with instinctive and incisive musicianship, Claus Peter Flor maintains a prestigious international career, renowned in particular for his interpretation and command of the Austro-Germanic repertoire, including Bruckner, Mahler, Strauss, Brahms, and Schumann. Maestro Flor also has a great affinity with the works of Shostakovich, as well as with the Czech repertoire of Dvorak and Suk, having recorded many of their works during his tenure as Chief Conductor of the Malaysian Philharmonic.
Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra
The Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra (SPO) is a professional symphony orchestra based in Shanghai, China. It is under the administration of the Shanghai Municipal Administration of Culture, Radio, Film, and TV.
The orchestra was re-structured based on the former Shanghai Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra (SBSO). SBSO was merged from two orchestras-Shanghai Film Orchestra, which was established in 1954 and Shanghai Broadcasting Orchestra, which was established in 1950. The merge happened in 1996, and the new orchestra was named Shanghai Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra with Yongyan Hu as its first music director. The name of the orchestra was officially changed to the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra in April 2004 with famous conductor Zuohuang Chen as its Music Director, adopting the world's most prevalent system of music seasons.
