The music
Promoting Switzerland abroad is an important mission for the SRO. The Orchestra is setting out to reach new audiences in Europe! Its first appearance at DR Koncerthuset Copenhague!
Gone are the days when the Geneva press referred to Concerto No. 2 in B flat major as a ‘great corpse’. Brahms has long been adored by audiences, who constantly request his works.
The symphonic triptych Escales describes a journey through the Mediterranean that had a profound impact on Ibert.
He brought back these three picturesque and refined pieces.
