Tonkünstler-Orchester
For many people, Sergei Rachmaninoff's Concerto for Piano No. 2 is the epitome of enthusiastic musical sensitivity. Which interpreter would be better suited for this than the young Japanese Kyohei Sorita? He became a pianist because he wanted to give people dreams. The 2nd part of the concert is dedicated to pictorial musical storytelling: The chief-conductor Yutaka Sado conducts the symphonic poem «Finlandia» by Jean Sibelius.
