One of the most sought-after violinists of his generation and a renowned expert in Scandinavian music, Pekka Kuusisto returns to Luxembourg, this time to perform with the OPL. The concert begins with a rarity by Jean Sibelius, who left not only a Violin Concerto, but also two remarkable Serenades for violin and orchestra; it continues with Thomas Adès’ Dances from Fairytale, a work the Finn recently premiered and which was inspired by British folk dances. The first part of the evening ends with the Luxembourg premiere of John Adams’ Harmonielehre, before a concert after the concert finds the soloist offering a pleasant end to the evening, in keeping with the spirit of the series «Aventure+».
