‘A cathedral of sound’: this is the description reviewers gave to the works of composer and organist Anton Bruckner. It could immediately also be a subtitle for his third and last Mass. Bruckner wrote that music out of profound devotion, and thanks to its symphonic richness of colour, the work remains a source of contemplation and consolation even today. Who else but Bruckner’s specialist Philippe Herreweghe is the perfect person to enrapture you and Collegium Vocale Gent with a monument of choral literature during this consolation concert?
