Lutosławski: Concerto for Orchestra
Bloch: Schelomo
Lutosławski: Cello Concerto
From the lyricism of Ernest Bloch’s Schelomo to the modernity of Witold Lutosławski’s Cello Concerto, together Jean-Guihen Queyras, Gustavo Gimeno and the Luxembourg Philharmonic explore the cello’s vocal qualities, ranging through prayers, cries and whispers. In response, the Polish composer’s Concerto for Orchestra is a celebration of collective vitality and exuberance. A voyage of discovery, from an inward song to an outburst of orchestral energy.
