Opposites attract! At least in this concert. François-Xavier Roth and his original sound orchestra Les Siècles combine works by György Ligeti and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - for which the musicians will even be swapping instruments. Because Les Siècles is one of the few orchestras that plays every work in their extensive repertoire on the appropriate historical instruments.

Thank you. From Norfolk, England. Fabulous performance of the Ligeti work, a 'tour de force ' of orchestral musicianship.

Buenas tardes desde Quito - Ecuador. Saludos cordiales y felicitaciones.

Saludos y gracias

[@ronaldwilliams9266]

Even though it was a toss up I believe that the conductor was the most decisively clear as to what he wanted in order to be produced from the orchestra. I'm glad everyone stayed on the same page and there was no quibbling at all amongst themselves.

Such a beautiful place, maybe one day I can visit ❤

[@ElbphilharmonieHamburg]

Please do!

[@staffanolofsson8201]

I tried, but the price of the tickets is very high. So it had to be a normal tourist walk around in the building, for free!

[@evashelton3162]

👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@rinaldino100]

Thanks for uploading this! Can I ask, why was the Ligeti violin concerto omitted from the recording?

[@ElbphilharmonieHamburg]

Unfortunately, it was not possible to record this part of the concert for legal reasons.

[@joh2089]

A radio recording of the same concert program performed at the Proms is still available on BBC Sounds until 9th October 2023, if that helps.

[@rinaldino100]

@@joh2089 thanks! That's a very nice suggestion!

[@volkerf.sesselmann6783]
