Simon Rattle conducts Dvořák, Elgar and a première
In this concert, the Berliner Philharmoniker take a musical journey to neighbouring European countries. Simon Rattle conducts a work from his native England: Edward Elgar’s unusually orchestrated Introduction and Allegro for string quartet and string orchestra, followed by the Slavonic Dances by Antonín Dvořák. In addition, a series initiated by Sir Simon of world premieres of short works begins, under the title “Tapas”.
