Emanuel Ax in conversation with Matthew Hunter Andris Nelsons and Emanuel Ax perform Mozart and Strauss
The epitome of classical music par excellence: the opening fanfare from Richard Strauss’s symphonic poem Also sprach Zarathustra. In this concert, Andris Nelsons combines the powerful work with Strauss’s witty Burleske for piano and orchestra. The soloist is Emanuel Ax, who also plays Mozart’s Piano Concerto K. 449, about which the composer himself said it was “of a very special kind”.
