Bruckner & Boulez

Monument of Romanticism

Pierre Boulez was famous for his precise "karate chop" when conducting. But what may have seemed a bit stiff to the audience was of considerable help to the instrumentalists: "He taught us the structure of every work very precisely," noted Emmanuel Pahud, principal flutist of the Berliner Philharmoniker. When Boulez was able to select the repertoire of the Wiener Philharmoniker, he chose Bruckner's austere monuments of Romanticism. Boulez's work Cummings ist der Dichter refers to a poem by the American E. E. Cummings, who breaks up sentences and words and arranges them on the book pages in such a way that surprising interrelations emerge.
