Elbphilharmonie for Connoisseurs 1

The subscription for connoisseurs combines momentous works of recent music history. And as the Elbphilharmonie attaches special importance to such music in its programmes, starting with the 2018/19 season there will be two different connoisseur subscriptions. One of the most frequently-performed composers of the 21st century is Sir George Benjamin, who can be heard no fewer than three times in the first connoisseur subscription series: on two of these evenings he appears in person, conducting his own works. And with Pierre-Laurent Aimard, we welcome one of today's most eminent pianists for modern music to the Grand Hall: György Ligeti's virtuoso piano études, influenced by West African and Indonesian music, appear on his concert programme alongside Bartók's.

Please note that »Elbphilharmonie für Kenner 1« will appear on subscription cards.
