His debut in the newly-opened Elbphilharmonie was originally scheduled for May 2017, but illness then prevented Christoph von Dohnányi's long-awaited return to the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra. Tonight the orchestra's former principal conductor finally gets the chance to make his debut in the concert hall whose construction he staunchly supported at the time. On the programme is a work from the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra's core repertoire worthy of the occasion: Anton Bruckner's monumental Eighth Symphony.
