Marek Janowski, United Strings of Europe

Conductor Marek Janowski talks with Sean Rafferty about Schubert and Verdi, and the United Strings of Europe present a new project featuring music by Philip Glass.

He is among the major European maestros, and currently the chief conductor of the Dresden Philharmonic: as he releases two new albums, one dedicated to a symphonic Schubert, the other to Verdi's 'Un ballo in maschera', conductor Marek Janowski talks to Sean Rafferty, live from Berlin, Germany.

Joining Sean in the studio are the United Strings of Europe, directed by Julian Azkoul: they are about to present the European premiere of 'Infinity', a mixed media project featuring new music by Philip Glass. They talk about this musical adventure and perform live on 'In Tune'.
