If it was a little strange that Esa-Pekka Salonen’s 30th anniversary with the Philharmonia was celebrated with a traditional, unadventurous Sunday matinée programme which did little to challenge its audience, at least the quality of the performance made it clear why this conductor is so well loved and respected.

Das Gewandhausorchester stellt in der umjubelten europäischen Erstaufführung von Thomas Adès' Klavierkonzert seine musikalische Kompetenz für die Stilrichtungen von Beethoven bis ins 21. Jahrhundert unter Beweis.

Salonen en magicien du rythme offre un Beethoven euphorique et hédoniste.
