There are few works that unfold the splendour of an orchestra’s sound like Richard Strauss’ Alpine Symphony or Béla Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra. Rising star Klaus Mäkelä and Jakub Hrůša conduct the two showpieces of the 20th century. Other masterpieces from this period are also on the programme: Juanjo Mena presents Ravel’s ballet music Daphnis et Chloé, while Kirill Petrenko demonstrates the late Romantic sense of sound in works by Elgar and Sibelius. The development of Austrian symphonic music can be traced by comparing Haydn’s 44th Symphony with Bruckner’s Second, written exactly 100 years later and conducted by Giovanni Antonini and Simone Young. Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5 with artist in residence Seong-Jin Cho can also be experienced as a central work of Viennese Classicism.
