BRSO mit Sir Simon Rattle & Magdalena Kožená

In the organizer's words:

Joseph Haydn is a life composer for Sir Simon Rattle, one that the BRSO principal conductor would take with him to a desert island. Now he is devoting himself to one of Haydn's wonderful Paris symphonies. The playful gesture of this D major symphony contrasts with Johannes Brahms' mature Fourth, which crowns his orchestral oeuvre - with its nostalgic, melancholy tone and formal mastery. Two poles of a great musical breath. In between, Ondřej Adámek plays Where Are You? A gripping drama about the search for God with quasi-ritual traits and a breathtaking treatment of language: Magdalena Kožená lends her unmistakable voice to the song cycle, which was premiered by the BRSO under pandemic conditions - now finally in front of an audience.
