Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra

Major rising-star conductor Lahav Shani performs with the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra in their first collaboration at Carnegie Hall. The concert begins with the lush, enchanting minimalism of Arvo Pärt’s Swansong, whose long, soaring harmonies suggest its origins as choral music. The world-renowned Daniil Trifonov joins in Mozart’s Ninth Piano Concerto, “Jeunehomme,” often considered the composer’s first true masterpiece. The concert concludes with selections from Prokofiev’s timeless Romeo and Juliet.
