Performer: Martin Grubinger

Austrian percussionist Martin Grubinger delivers a memorable performance at Berlin's Staatsoper with a programme featuring Peter Eötvös and Tan Dun, under the baton of Gustavo Gimeno.

Zubin Mehta and the Berlin Philharmonic have an extraordinary relationship lasting over five decades. In three performances in the Philharmonie, Mehta paired a piece from the core of his romantic repertoire with a new percussion concerto.

A percussion concerto tribute to natural disasters and a dark snapshot of post-Stalinist Russia make for a compelling programme from the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, Krzysztof Urbański and soloist Martin Grubinger. 

Percussion virtuoso Martin Grubinger talks about his love for Bernstein, his current projects and how we need more women to take up percussion.
