PERFORMING WITH

Manfred Honeck, conductor
The world-famous Norwegian pianist Leif Ove Andsnes plays Rachmaninov’s music at the very highest level. His interpretations of Rachmaninov’s piano concertos are incomparable, not least the beloved Piano Concerto No. 3. “A gigantic work full of challenges for the pianist”, as Andsnes himself says.
Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 3 contains everything you want from a virtuoso piano concerto: beautiful melodies and equilibristic piano magic, linked together into a gripping and captivating structure that can make the roof of a concert hall lift!
The evening’s outstanding conductor, Manfred Honeck from Vienna, concludes the concert with Schubert’s great Symphony No. 9: a striving and ecstatic work that Honeck regards as the beginning of the entire Romantic musical tradition. In short, tonight’s concert consists of two highlights from classical music – played by some of the world’s best musicians.
