Playlist Brahms und Lutoslawski

The North, the East: for Paavo Järvi, these are the cardinal points where many of his favourite composers lived. He juxtaposes two of them, the Finn Jean Sibelius and the Pole Witold Lutoslawski, in this lunchtime concert. Sibelius' "Andante festivo" for strings and timpani sounds exactly as the title suggests, namely festive. And Lutoslawski's "Concerto for Orchestra" is a masterpiece of the mid-20th century: traditional yet modern, highly original and immediately gripping. It was once announced on Radio SRF2 Kultur as an "orchestral showpiece with depth": exactly.
