Kirill Petrenko conducts Brahms, Zimmermann and Dusapin

Johannes Brahms set new standards with his First Symphony: thanks to its dramatically coloured tonal language, it is regarded as the epitome of the late Romantic symphony – at the same time, its innovative thematic design continues to have an impact into the modern era. Kirill Petrenko and the Berliner Philharmoniker combine the work with Bernd Alois Zimmermann’s expressive Oboe Concerto with Albrecht Mayer as the soloist. The sonorously powerful Exeo by Pascal Dusapin is a discovery.
