Intérprete: András Keller

András Keller’s orchestra offers intensity, finesse and sheer dramatic sweep, from Tchaikovsky’s infernal tragedy to a Beethoven Fifth Symphony driven with exhilarating momentum.

Masterful accounts of two great symphonies by Concerto Budapest in Dublin and fascinating Bartok from Pierre-Laurent Aimard. 

The marathon chamber concert leg of the Beethoven Day in Budapest's Liszt Academy featured artists such as Miklós Perényi, Dénes Várjon and the Hungarian Quartet.

Budapest rolled out the red carpet for its legendary composer György Kurtág, who, amidst a celebratory week, was the honoree at his splendid 90th birthday concert. 

With a debut opera for ENO in the pipeline for next year and residencies with both Wigmore Hall and the London Philharmonic Orchestra, things are currently looking bright for Julian Anderson. To celebrate this, Wigmore Hall turned 2 November into Julian Anderson Day, devoting two concerts and a talk to exploring his music.
