Musical works don’t always live up to their labels. But Tchaikovsky’s «Fate Symphony» in E minor delivers what it promises: resounding through its dreamy melodies is exactly what the composer himself set down in writing over the first movement: «complete resignation before fate, which is the same as the inscrutable predestination of fate». Manfred Honeck and the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra conclude their two-day guest visit to the Wolkenturm with this masterpiece. At the start of the concert, audience favourite Gautier Capuçon makes his appearance with Dvořák’s Cello Concerto.
