Performer: Robert Dean Smith

Omer Meir Wellber makes his first appearance with the BBC Philharminic since the announcement of his appointment as Chief Conductor Designate.

In a fin de siècle programme, Salonen and the Philharmonia demonstrated visceral excitement, and found ways to reinvent. 

This was a superbly assured performance in which Esa-Pekka Salonen marshalled his forces with a clear-sighted vision to carve out an account brimming with intensity, energy and commitment.
