Big gestures are the order of the day here! For many people, Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 is the epitome of enthusiastic musical sensitivity. And which interpreter would be better suited for this than the young Japanese Kyohei Sorita? He became a pianist, because he wanted to give people dreams and studied at the Moscow Conservatory. The second part of the concert is dedicated to pictorial musical storytelling: as one of Jean Sibelius's most successful compositions, the symphonic poem "Finlandia" has acquired a special status in the musical consciousness of the Finns and is the artistic expression of their striving for independence. With chief conductor Yutaka Sado conducting the Tonkunstler-Orchestra!
