Is it just a cliché to assume that French music is particularly sophisticated? Or is there more than just a grain of truth in it? An exciting question. Alan Gilbert and the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra explore this question when they take a trip to France with Leif Ove Andsnes as part of the Hamburg International Music Festival. With three visionary works that rarely find their way into the concert hall and illuminate the festival motto »Future« in a unique way.

Kölner Philharmonie (Köln)

Leif Ove Andsnes (Piano), Mahler Academy Orchestra, Philipp von Steinaecker (Conductor)

Gustav Mahler's "Adagietto" is a symphonic evergreen. But you've never heard this melodramatic movement like this before! The Bolzano-based Mahler Academy Orchestra, conducted by Philipp von Steinaecker, performs Mahler's 5th Symphony on period instruments, as it may have sounded at its Cologne premiere in 1904. Prior to this, Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto will be performed with Norwegian pianist Leif Ove Andsnes, also in period sound.
