Rachmaninov, Bernstein and Previn

This event is part of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra's tour to Germany in May 2022.

"I'm crazy about my job." Even if this quote comes from André Previn, Anne-Sophie Mutter would probably sign it off as well. Because the star violinist and the universal musician Previn were not only connected through their marriage, but also through their shared passion for music. André Previn was a miracle of artistic versatility, an exceptional musician whose creativity knew no bounds. His Violin Concerto, 'Anne-Sophie', composed in 2005, is tailor-made for the violinist: with her powerful tone and her virtuosity, and beyond any doubt, she knows how to develop the lyrical brilliance of the high registers and plumb the horizon between dazzling contrasts and emotional outbursts like no other. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra playfully rounds off the program with Leonard Bernstein's overture to Candide and Rachmaninov's Symphonic Dances.
