International Chamber Orchestras

Series O

The Mahler Chamber Orchestra and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe have two things in common: their outstanding reputations and the fact that they had Claudio Abbado as mentor during their formative years. In their visits to the Philharmonie they will be joined by some exciting guest artists. The genre-crossing passions of Violinist Pekka Kuusisto from Finland, who will appear as soloist and director with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, include folk, jazz and electronic music. His unconventional approach to music-making will be on display with a Classical milestone, Beethoven’s Violin Concerto. With the same orchestra, Simon Rattle will conduct the last three symphonies of Mozart, works close to his heart which he interprets with flair, transparency and tonal finesse.

Under the direction of Andrew Manze and Antonio Pappano, the Chamber Orchestra of Europe will be joined by two of the most prominent pianists of the younger generation: Jan Lisiecki and Beatrice Rana. The first of the orchestra’s two concerts will focus entirely on the Viennese Classics, while the second will illuminate European Romanticism and late Romanticism from shifting perspectives.
