Bernard Haitink and the Chamber Orhcestra of Europe perform Ravel and Mozart in a display of astonishing orchestral playing.

The WDR Sinfonieorchester Köln put its fate in the hands of the younger generation for this evening’s concert. Conductor Kazuki Yamada is only 34. The original violin soloist was to have been Lisa Batiashvili, but she pulled out and was replaced by the 22-year-old Serge Zimmermann.
