Orchestre de Paris, Esa-Pekka Salonen & Bertrand Chamayou Live at Paris Philharmonic
A raw classical night.
Bertrand Chamayou performs both of Ravel's piano concertos in a program conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen. The concert opens with the French premiere of Gabriella Smith's oceanic piece Tumblebird Contrails, inspired by the Pacific coast and Jack Kerouac. Ravel's Piano Concerto for the Left Hand, known for its jazz-influenced tension, and the classical yet Gershwin-esque Concerto in G major are paired before the evening concludes with Bartók's masterful Concerto for Orchestra, a piece that showcases the entire symphonic ensemble.
