Mikko Franck, a representative of the extremely high-powered Finnish conducting school, burst onto the music scene like a bolt of lightning. The programme will combine music by French classics with the world premiere of a piece by Kryštof Mařatka. Based in Paris and Prague, the Czech composer was inspired in this work by images of prehistoric cave paintings; he wrote the piece for violinist Amaury Coeytaux as a joint commission from the Prague Spring and Radio France.
