NDR @elbphilharmonie Orchestra has an illustrious history performing the music of Bruckner. I am thrilled to perform his Eighth Symphony, perhaps his most powerful and monumental, but also his most spiritual, this Friday. Watch >> bit.ly/3CX9wQG

Rehearsing the music for our program this week reminded me just how rich and varied Bartok’s music is. And it’s a joy to be working again with my dear friend and colleague, @igorpianist @elbphilharmonie Tune in today ➡️ bit.ly/3uiRWmc

Swirling in the intoxication of Parsifal! Studying this towering masterpiece is a joy. It’s utterly simple in a way, but demands an elastic sense of pacing that can only be achieved by living fully and deeply in its world. This spring @KungligaOperan bit.ly/42dlKwU
