Mirga makes Concertgebouw debut
OrchestrasThe peripatetic Lithuanian Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla will coduct the Concertgebouw next month in Beethoven’s Leonore Overture No. 3 and Weinberg’s Symphony No. 3.
The orchestra lacks a music director, and Mirga is on the loose after quitting the UK.
Also coducting in Amsterdam 9is the young Finn Klaus Mäkelä and the Italian Fabio Luisi.
The longlist lengthens.
yeah yeah, so what? conductors make debuts all the time. good to see the crush has not waned. schmuck.
Yes, Mäkelä will return to Amsterdam in May and that will be the third time this season: highly remarkable for a newcomer, I suppose.
He did also the very important Christmas afternoon concert. But he will not be the next musical director because he has already new duties in Paris and Oslo. But yes there’s a strong sign that the oarchestra and him match perfectly i saw it for la mer and Sibelius 1. And at the RCO when it don’t work we know quickly. Directors are not call a second time quickly
He will indeed be the next MD , isn’t it clear?
In 2032 or 2037 maybe. But the RCO does very frenquently concerts with other conductors with less publicity there Fischer (the real musical director even if it’s not official) Chung (my choice) Gergiev or a younger who seems to have a very good reputation inside the orchestra, the french François-Xavier Roth
Picture this.
Mirga conducting an all-black orchestra (I mean the New Zealand national rugby team), with Lola playing the piano solo.
A concert which would live in infamy.
Only because the All Blacks are lousy musicians………..
Christian Thielemann doesn’t make debuts all the time.
he did several concerts with the RCO in 97 and 2002. but it seems that it didn’t match. Never comes back
He was scheduled to come back last year with Bruckner’s 5th but then Covid interfered …
Not a great loss.
From Germany the RCO has a real better relationship with Thomas Hengelbrock
Franz Liszt
Deborah still hasn’t called?!
Wouldn’t Deborah want to wait for her fancy new hall to be completed before this young sensation makes a debut?
Not even the curly one, ya?
It would be great if Fabio Luisi were invited to be chief conductor at the Concertgebouw. Another Italian following Chailly. However, I think he has enough commitments currently so probably wouldn’t bet on it…………
Sounds like a joke, since Luisi wouldn’t be the next Italian following Chailly at Concertgebouw. If it was a joke, I’m sorry for been naive.
Mirga’s meteoric rise out of nowhere is quite breathtaking to behold.
