Simon Rattle and Sol Gabetta
The Easter Festival has always been an occasion for the Berliner Philharmoniker to work with young, aspiring soloists for the first time. This was also the case at the 2014 Baden-Baden Festival, where cellist Sol Gabetta made her Philharmoniker debut in a performance of Edward Elgar’s virtuoso and elegiac Cello Concerto. Sir Simon Rattle also conducts works by Ligeti and Wagner, plus Stravinsky’s revolutionary Le Sacre du printemps.
