Description
It was during the Festival’s first summer, on 2 September 2007, when Zubin Mehta debuted in Grafenegg. But his relationship with Grafenegg’s orchestra in residence dates back much further. The last time he conducted the Tonkunstler Orchestra was on 10 March 1962. More than 63 years later, the superstar celebrates his sensational return to the podium of the orchestra with which he graduated his conducting class in the Wiener Musikverein in 1957 to mark the conclusion of the Grafenegg Festival. «He has the right stuff to become a real darling of the public», wrote the author and cabarettist Gerhard Bronner at the time in the Neuer Kurier of the then-unknown «genuine Indian named Zubin Mehta» – and how right he was! With his close friend Rudolf Buchbinder at the piano, Mehta will conduct first the Piano Concerto No. 1 and then, after the interval, the Symphony No. 1 by Johannes Brahms: an exceptional, moving finale to the summer of 2025.
