«Riot at the Rite! A terrific uproar!»

This is the kind of newspaper headline you might have read following the premiere of Igor Stravinksy’s Rite of Spring in 1913. And no wonder: the ballet’s groundbreaking music and provocative choreography shocked pre-WWI audiences to their core. The composer’s response to his critics? «Go to hell!» Let’s hope for a slightly tamer reaction from our Philharmonie audience as we explore some springtime rites; beginning with an exuberant Carnival and finishing with Stravinksy’s evocation of an ancient pagan ritual.

The soul-stirring debut of Robert Schumann's «Fantasiestücke» Op. 73 continues to resonate in our hearts! Enormous gratitude to our artist in residence, pianist Helene Grimaud, and the exceptional cellist Sol Gabetta for their brilliant performance at the Grand Auditorium.
