In the stream of sound

Brahms times two is the motto this season for the exceptional Icelandic pianist Víkingur Ólafsson: after his journey around the world with Bach's Goldberg Variations, he has taken on both of Johannes Brahms' piano concertos this season - with different partners at his side. The opening concert with the London Philharmonic Orchestra in November will be followed in March by the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich and the symphonic Second Piano Concerto. As a lively addition, the orchestra contributes Schumann's "Rhenish" Symphony - a showpiece for the Swiss orchestra and its energetic chief conductor Paavo Järvi. You can hear the motivational boost that the move from Leipzig to Düsseldorf on the Rhine meant for the composer in the cheerfully flowing sounds of this symphony.
