About this event

Forest god versus cosmic intoxication: on one side, Sibelius and his final symphonic poem, Tapiola, a vision of a pristine, untamed world without humankind; on the other, an orgiastic poem that thrills in concert—“I call you to life, O mysterious forces, drowned in the dark depths of the creative spirit, timid embryos of life, to you I bring boldness,” proclaims Scriabin in his preface. Two ways to prepare the way for the pure, ardent singing line of Chopin’s Second Piano Concerto, which the veteran Mikhail Pletnev will perform with lordly poise—using his own orchestration.
