Two hip Scandinavian artists from the young classical scene present multicultural music full of dance rhythms: for his debut with the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra, 35-year-old Finnish shooting star Santtu-Matias Rouvali, designated chief conductor of the Philharmonia Orchestra of London and currently principal conductor of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, join forces with the exceptional Swedish clarinettist Martin Fröst. The two young artists have put together a varied programme with works by Béla Bartók, Witold Lutosławski, Aaron Copland and Igor Stravinsky – a programme where you want to dance to the music: first stamping in peasant style, then jazzy, and at the end as a grotesque marionette. Rarely has Bartók’s idea of (musical) friendship between the peoples been so vividly presented as in this Hungarian-Polish-American-Russian sequence of music.
