Intensive sound and highly virtuosic

"The art is not just to approach this work from a human perspective [...] but to bring in the aspect of nature," says Julia Fischer about Jean Sibelius' Violin Concerto. It is one of her favorite pieces and has been on the program for many important debuts in her impressive career. The changing moods of nature determine the unique energy and extraordinary timbres of this late Romantic concerto. A theme that could hardly be more topical 100 years after its composition. Béla Bartók's Concerto for Orchestra is also characterized by a similar intensity of sound - highly virtuosic and hope-giving, it is one of the absolute masterpieces of the orchestral repertoire. With its strong string sounds and daring wind passages, it is a showpiece for a noble orchestra such as the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of its chief conductor.
