Interview
Barbara Hannigan in conversation with Hans Abrahamsen and Paul Griffiths Andris Nelsons and Barbara Hannigan
In addition to the German repertoire, the Latvian conductor Andris Nelsons’s favourite compositions include works from north-east Europe. His preference is also reflected the concert with Brahms’s Fourth Symphony, and two wistfully sensuous contemporary works by the Latvian composer Pēteris Vasks and the Danish-born Hans Abrahamsen. The soloist is the soprano Barbara Hannigan.
