Orchestre de Paris / Klaus Mäkelä

Beethoven's grandeur, simultaneously epic and tragic, sublimated by Mitsuko Uchida's touch on piano, marks this exceptional evening, all the more since preceded by a premiere and followed by Berliozian excess.

Vocal and orchestral colours are the order of the day in this contrasting program where the shine of the brass contrasts with the impressionist moire, with the added bonus of Poulenc's smiling spirituality and Mussorgsky’s irresistible pictures!

In a programme imagined as a true hymn to the orchestra, Le Sacre du printemps magnifies the telluric power of the orchestra in striking counterpoint to the miraculously delicate orchestration of Le Tombeau de Couperin and Ma mère l'Oye.

Yunchan Lim's galvanising virtuosity takes hold of Concerto No.4, the least performed of Rachmaninoff's concertos, but also the richest and most adventurous of the series. And, in response, we have the flamboyant grandeur of Saint-Saëns's Organ Symphony.

In an invigorating contrast to Ravel’s miraculously delicate orchestration of Le Tombeau de Couperin and Ma mère l'Oye, the barbed rhythms and sparkling orchestral colours of Petrouchka complete a program conceived as as a true hymn to the orchestra.

Klaus Mäkelä lets loose on a program of changing colours, from modernism to impressionism. As a bonus, Gustavo Dudamel takes the podium to conduct one of Beethoven's most brilliant pieces!

Klaus Mäkelä is a phenomenon. At the age of 28, the young Finn is already conducting the world’s great orchestras and has been working closely with the Orchestre de Paris for years. He has been Music Director of the top orchestra since 2021 – a time in which a very special relationship has developed between him and the musicians. The specially developed programmes are precisely tailored to the musical energy that Mäkelä and the Orchestre de Paris unleash together. For their concert in Hamburg, they will bring magnificent musical images by Maurice Ravel, Igor Stravinsky and Modest Mussorgsky to the Elbphilharmonie: fairytale-like and fantastic, timid and powerful – a programme that is not only made for the ears, but also for the inner eye.

The Orchestre de Paris, led by Klaus Mäkelä, presents an evening of legendary Ballets Russes music. The program includes Stravinsky's scandalous "The Rite of Spring" and the grotesque story of "Petrushka," along with Ravel's luminous "Le Tombeau de Couperin."
