First concert of the Asian tour with Simon Rattle and Seong-Jin Cho

The Berliner Philharmoniker are on a tour of Asia – their last under the direction of Simon Rattle as chief conductor. In the Hong Kong Cultural Centre, the orchestra has the opportunity to show off the full diversity of its sound in the dark cantabile of Brahms’s Fourth Symphony, the spectacular swagger of Richard Strauss’s Don Juan, and the elusive mixture of French flair and jazz in Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G major. The soloist is the Korean rising star Seong-Jin Cho.
