About this event

Described by the violinist Midori as 鈥榮o rhapsodic and so individual鈥�, DoReMi is Hungarian composer Peter E枚tv枚s鈥檚 second violin concerto. Esa-Pekka Salonen conducts the Philharmonia Orchestra in the UK premiere of a work first heard in Los Angeles this January.

E枚tv枚s鈥檚 鈥榳orld of simple things鈥� and the sparkling overture to Mozart鈥檚 1786 backstage comedy of artistic tantrums and overblown egos, D*er Schauspieldirektor*, contrast with the misty melancholy of Bruckner鈥檚 great tribute to Wagner, the Seventh Symphony, its orchestration permeated by the sound of four Wagner tubas.
