2002 Europakonzert from Palermo with Claudio Abbado and Gil Shaham
Rapturous applause tinged with a little sadness characterise this Europakonzert from the Teatro Massimo in Palermo, which was the first stop on Claudio Abbado’s final tour at the head of the Berliner Philharmoniker in 2002. The concert features committed performances of great works of the Romantic period: the profound emotion of Brahms’s Violin Concerto with Gil Shaham as the soloist, and Dvořák’s Symphony From the New World with its ingenious combination of American and Bohemian elements.
