The programme for this event has had to be changed as a result of the coronavirus situation
An invitation to dance
Concerts at the Elbphilharmonie and Laeiszhalle are currently subject to coronavirus-related restrictions. This event is therefore going ahead with an amended programme and reduced seating capacity. There will be two concerts on 5 November 2020 at 18:30 and 21:00.
The concert was part of the »NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra Subscription A«. We will be in touch directly with subscribers to notify them of all alternative options.
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.
