Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich / Fazıl Say / Paavo Järvi

A mirror of humanity

Fazıl Say is eloquent. Not only with sounds, but with words too. He can captivate, thrill and inspire. And when it comes to Mozart, he is almost unstoppable: »For me, a genius of the millennium whose work represents humanity in its entirety. A model of beauty and a productive being: Human goodness is reflected in his music – and that is what makes it unique.« Who would disagree with that? Say gets to the heart of what Mozart is all about and leaves no doubt that Viennese Classicism should not be taken lightly.
