Kirill Petrenko and András Schiff with works by Brahms and Suk

Berlin

Germany

Berliner Philharmonie

One of Kirill Petrenko’s priorities is to introduce the music of Josef Suk to a larger audience. At this concert, he presents the symphonic poem The Ripening, which combines late Romantic tonal splendour with modern harmony. Johannes Brahms was a supporter of Suk. We hear Brahms’s Second Piano Concerto, in which brusque force and tender feelings collide. The soloist is Sir András Schiff, a long-time partner of the Berliner Philharmoniker.

For Kirill Petrenko it is an affair of the heart to bring Josef Suk's music to a larger audience. Now he is presenting the symphonic poem Lebensreife , which combines late-Romantic splendor of sound with modern harmony. Programmatically, Suk represents the emotional multifacetedness of life, its joys and sorrows. An early patron of Suk was Johannes Brahms. The Second Piano Concerto can be heard from him, in which harsh force and the most tender feeling collide. With András Schiff, the soloist is a long-standing partner of the Berlin Philharmonic.
