Eckehard Stier - Conductor

Haydn: Symphony No.45 (“Farewell Symphony”)
Shostakovich: Symphony No.8

Born of the crucible of war, Shostakovich’s Symphony No.8 is a shattering and ultimately uplifting experience. Eckehard Stier made his reputation with the symphonies of Shostakovich, and Auckland audiences now have the chance to experience the power and poignance of his interpretation. This concert begins with Haydn’s elegant and wistful Farewell Symphony, which fades away as the musicians leave the stage one by one.
