The London Philharmonic Orchestra perform on tour in Freiburg with Principal Guest Conductor Karina Canellakis and cellist Sol Gabetta.
Anyone who has ever experienced the cellist Sol Gabetta in concert will be able to empathise with such musical experiences of happiness. For years, the exceptional artist has delighted audiences with the masterpiece that is Shostakovich’s Cello Concerto No. 1, a passionate rollercoaster ride that calls for gripping monologues as well as virtuosic interplay. Two of Beethoven’s “heroic” works form the framework for this electric programme, conducted with all the splendour and prowess Karina Canellakis brings to all of her performances.
