Concert information
Info
With his Second Piano Concerto, Sergei Prokofiev crafted a work of archaic power, blazing energy and mysticism– one of the most demanding compositions of its kind. Ideal terrain for pianist Seong-Jin Cho, whose playing unites virtuosity with refinement. No less powerful and driving is Witold Lutosławski’s Concerto for Orchestra, in which echoes of Masurian folk music can be heard. On the podium: the young conductor Elim Chan, from Hong Kong, making her debut with the Berliner Philharmoniker. The programme opens with a humorous fairy-tale by Sofia Gubaidulina.
