Santtu & Víkingur Ólafsson
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]The Philharmonia Orchestra’s 80th birthday season opens with time-honoured classics and brand new sounds.
Event information
The Clore Ballroom, Level 2, Royal Festival Hall at 6.30pm: Insights talk. An introduction to the Philharmonia Orchestra’s 80th birthday season. Admission free.
A new piece by Gabriela Ortiz, the Philharmonia’s triple Grammy-winning Featured Composer, is first on the menu. Ortiz’ music has immediate appeal, and a distinctive flavour of her Mexican homeland.
The drama and grace of Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto are in the more-than-capable hands of soloist Víkingur Ólafsson. A remarkable interpreter of music from Bach to Glass, Ólafsson is the Philharmonia’s Featured Artist this season.
Last but certainly not least comes Saint-Saëns’ magnificent Organ Symphony. Hearing the huge Royal Festival Hall organ playing with a full orchestra is something you experience not just with your ears but with your whole body.
Saint-Saëns poured his soul into what he considered his greatest work, and the result is a spine-tingling orchestral masterpiece.
