Work: En Saga, a symphonic poem for orchestra, Op.9

Sakari Oramo and Annsi Karttunen bring Northern lights and folklore to the Philharmonie, closing on a touch of Czech optimism with Dvořák’s Eighth Symphony.

Mozart's “Elvira Madigan” Piano Concerto is played with grace and style by Benjamin Grosvenor; Andrey Boreyko and LPO gives gripping accounts of Sibelius and Tchaikovsky. 

Levit offers impeccable Beethoven, while Pappano enchants the Rome audience with Cherubini and Sibelius.
