Sobre este show
Víkingur Ólafsson brings the new concerto written for him by John Adams to London.
This clear-your-diaries concert features the combined talents of three musicians at the very top of their game – composer John Adams, pianist Víkingur Ólafsson and conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen. After the Fall acknowledges Ólafsson’s ‘masterly grace and precision’ (San Francisco Chronicle) and affinity for Bach, quoting from Bach’s C minor Prelude. The dreamy soundworld of its opening has drawn comparisons with Ravel and Bartók. But its expert handling of energy and rhythm are 100% Adams.
Esa-Pekka Salonen was Principal Conductor of the Philharmonia for 13 years. Returning as Conductor Laureate to join the orchestra’s 80th birthday celebrations, he has chosen one of his favourite pieces to complete this evening’s programme. Ravel’s ballet Daphnis and Chloé is widely considered his finest work. Rich, imaginative orchestral textures transport the listener to an enchanted world of gods and shepherdesses, via arguably the most gorgeous depiction of sunrise in the orchestral repertoire.

Biografia de Philharmonia Orchestra
The Philharmonia is an orchestra based in London. Since 1995 it has been based in the Royal Festival Hall. In Britain it is also the Resident Orchestra at De Montfort Hall, Leicester and the Bedford Corn Exchange.
The orchestra was founded in 1945 by Walter Legge, and although it did give the occasional live concert, it was mainly intended to be a recording orchestra for EMI, where Legge was an executive. Thomas Beecham led its debut concert in 1946, but he was ruled out as a long-term conductor of the group when he tried to take control of the orchestra and change its name (Beecham instead went on to found his own Royal Philharmonic Orchestra).
In its early years, many prominent conductors made recordings with the ensemble, including Arturo Toscanini and Wilhelm Furtwängler. However it was Herbert von Karajan (who was not allowed to work in Germany or Austria at the time because of his Nazi record) who was most associated with the Philharmonia in its early years. Karajan built the orchestra into one of the finest ensembles in the world, and made numerous recordings, including all the Beethoven symphonies.
The Philharmonia is the most recorded orchestra in the world, with over one thousand recordings. It has also been heard on the soundtracks of many films, performing the musical scores of such classics as Laurence Olivier's 1944 film version of Shakespeare's Henry V, and David Lean's film version of Oliver Twist (1948).
