The language of music.
A path to transcendence?
Press
"Gerd Schaller continues to grow and thrive on his celebrated Bruckner cycle. He is already one of the outstanding Bruckner cycles of our century."
The world is sound
"That is the secret of music, that it demands only our soul, but that it does not demand intelligence and education; it transcends all sciences and languages in ambiguous, but in the last sense always self-evident formations always only the soul of The greater the master, the more unlimited the validity and depth of his vision and experience.
And again: the more perfect the purely musical form, the more directly the effect on our soul. "
Orchestra
Philharmonie Festiva
Philharmonie Festiva is a symphony orchestra consisting of selected, high-calibre musicians from leading German orchestras, which was brought into being by its conductor Gerd Schaller in 2008 and caused a sensation internationally, especially through its Bruckner recordings.
Schaller’s intention was to create an orchestra for the long term that could do justice to his own ambitious projects — an unashamedly elite ensemble.
