Harding Interprets Boulanger

Time and time again, music by women composers rewrites the map of music history. Lili Boulanger and Valborg Aulin were both successful during their lifetime, and now we get to meet their music in a concert full of French melancholy and Swedish choral poetry. Music director Daniel Harding leads the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Swedish Radio Choir, the youth choir Jeune Chœur de Paris, and several eminent vocal soloists.

After the concert, world renowned conductor Sir Simon Rattle will take to the podium and lead the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra through Jean Sibelius’s masterful fifth symphony.

Bonus!

Sir Simon Rattle conducts The Swedish Radio Orchestra in Sibelius’s fifth symphony.

 

”For the best part of the last twenty years I have been telling Simon what a jewel of an orchestra we have at the Swedish Radio.
No orchestra has meant more to me than SRSO, and no conductor more than Simon.
That, in my last season as Music Director, I get to enjoy a musical encounter between them will be a moment of pure joy.”

– Daniel Harding
