Darsteller

Midori	Violine
Philharmonia Orchestra
Esa-Pekka Salonen	Musikalische Leitung

Described by the violinist
Midori as ‘so rhapsodic
and so individual’, DoReMi is
Hungarian composer Peter
Eötvös’s second violin
concerto. Esa-Pekka
Salonen conducts the
Philharmonia Orchestra in
the UK premiere of a work
first heard in Los Angeles
this January. Eötvös’s ‘world of simple things’ and
the sparkling overture to Mozart’s 1786 backstage
comedy of artistic tantrums and overblown egos,
Der Schauspieldirektor, contrast with the misty
melancholy of Bruckner’s great tribute to Wagner,
the Seventh Symphony, its orchestration permeated
by the sound of four Wagner tubas.Tickets £7.50 - £36.

Plan

Prom 63: Philharmonia on scintillating form for Eötvös and Bruckner

Ken Ward, 30th August

The most memorable thing about this concert for me was the sheer glory of the Philharmonia’s playing. Whether it was in the winning, sprightly Mozart overture, or in all the glinting colours of Peter Eötvös’ new work, or in the full and rich late-Romantic orchestral tones of the Bruckner, these musicians, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen, were magnificent.
