A tribute to the richness and variety of American music
in the first of two concerts at the Philharmonie given by the London Symphony Orchestra reunited with its charismatic former conductor, Sir Simon Rattle. Enjoy a new work by the ever-creative John Adams, along with Roy Harris’s expansive Symphony N° 3 (often described as «the Great American Symphony»), and George Gershwin’s jazz-infused Concerto in F, featuring virtuoso soloist Kirill Gerstein.
For this episode of “the art of conducting”, we sat down with Sir Simon Rattle, the music director of the London Symphony Orchestra. He talked to us about what the lockdown situation looked like for orchestras, the rehearsing & composing process of Ondřej Adámek’s piece “Where are you”, the collaboration between conductor & musicians and much more! Special thanks to the Hotel le Place d’Armes and it’s team for the warm welcome!
