Description
Its name translates as «Fragrant Harbour». The megapolis at the mouth of the Pearl River on China’s south coast is one of the world’s most important economic and financial centres. Thanks to Dutch conductor Jaap van Zweden, the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra developed into an internationally celebrated ensemble over the course of his tenure as Music Director – not just with reference to the concert literature but also with a complete «Der Ring des Nibelungen». The opening of this guest performance, which brings Jaap van Zweden and «HKPhil» to Grafenegg after his official departure as Music Director in 2024, is also dedicated to Wagner. Rudolf Buchbinder is the soloist in Beethoven’s Piano Concerto in C minor: an evening full of drama, grandeur and Romantic intensity.
