Alan Gilbert describes Robert Schumann’s Symphony No. 2 as a “musical autobiography” – a work shaped both by the composer’s love for his wife Clara and by his artistic model, Johann Sebastian Bach. Schumann combines dense contrapuntal writing with irresistibly intimate melodies. Brett Dean, this season’s Composer in Residence, has called his Violin Concerto The Lost Art of Letter Writing a “pretty tricky piece” – tailor-made for Isabelle Faust’s precision and clarity. The work sounds sensuous yet fragile, a nostalgic evocation of a world in which people still wrote letters.
