Episode 12

«Tram for Two» with Paavo Järvi and Anna Thorvaldsdottir

In the twelfth episode of "Tram for Two", Music Director Paavo Järvi and our Creative Chair Anna Thorvaldsdottir travel through Zurich on tram no. 9.

What experience in Anna Thorvaldsdottir's childhood was formative for her musical career? From the musical idea in her head to the work on paper - how does she compose? And why does Paavo Järvi think he hears whale songs in "Archora"? The answers to these and other questions can be found in this episode of our "Tram for Two" video series.
