Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden / Sol Gabetta / Tugan Sokhiev

Wed, May 21, 2025, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden, Sol Gabetta (Cello), Tugan Sokhiev (Conductor)
What do Shostakovich’s First Cello Concerto and Bruckner’s Seventh Symphony have in common? That’s right: they both have the catalogue number 107 and – and this is the real point – the cello can be heard at the beginning. One could assume that the similarities end here. While Bruckner focusses on long melodic lines and vocal arches, Shostakovich is much more rhythmic. Nevertheless, both composers pursue the same goal: the expression of the greatest and most intense emotions. With Tugan Sokhiev and the Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden, they are in the best of hands. With its unique sound – Herbert von Karajan compared it to the »lustre of old gold« – the venerable orchestra puts the two sound monoliths at the Elbphilharmonie in the perfect acoustic light. Star cellist Sol Gabetta provides the right pitch on the cello.

»In his piano concertos, Mozart appeared as the musician he really wanted to be.« Rudolf Buchbinder is convinced of this – and he would know, because the grand seigneur of the piano knows the works of the Viennese classics like no other. In these masterpieces, all of which Mozart composed for himself, we encounter »a musician who trusted his own freedom«, says the Austrian Buchbinder, who himself was taught at the Vienna Academy of Music from the age of five. Mozart has accompanied him his whole life. With ProArte, Buchbinder performs six piano concertos over two evenings with his characteristic attention to even the smallest musical detail, conducting the Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden from the piano – in true Mozartian style.

Tugan Sokhiev & Vadim Gluzman

Thu, Apr 10, 2025, 20:00
Tugan Sokhiev (Conductor), Vadim Gluzman (Violin), Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks
In the hopes that in April spring will already be bursting out of the ground, the sky, and people’s hearts, this concert could not begin more fittingly than with Lili Boulanger’s D’un matin de printemps, a sonic representation of springtime. It is an entertaining and wonderfully orchestrated piece that is definitely worth listening to. Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto is a more familiar work, and has found one of its most sympathetic advocates in Vadim Gluzman; indeed, this work has become second nature to him. Additionally, Gluzman has had a long-standing collaboration with conductor Tugan Sokhiev (as well as with BRSO concertmaster Anton Barakhovsky). Chausson’s Symphony in B flat major, a pinnacle of French symphonic music, will round off the programme.

Tugan Sokhiev conducts Mahler’s First

Sat, Jan 11, 2025, 19:00
Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)
Berliner Philharmoniker (Orchestra), Tugan Sokhiev (Conductor), Amihai Grosz (Viola)
It is his first major work, and yet it is a mature musical statement. Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 contains everything that would characterise the composer’s later style: emotional outbursts, sudden yawning chasms, folkloric melodies, the sounds of nature, grotesque alienations. Conductor Tugan Sokhiev places this work alongside Lili Boulanger’s impressionistic, shimmering D’un matin de printemps and a newly-composed viola concerto by South Korean composer Donghoon Shin – also an admirer of Mahler. The solo part of the world premiere will be played by Amihai Grosz, first principal viola of the Berliner Philharmoniker.
