Mariss Jansons cancels, a drummer steps up
mainMariss Jansons has told the Concertgebouw he needs rest after undergoing medical treatment and will miss this week’s concerto.
Step up Gustavo Gimeno, the orchestra’s Spanish principal percussionist, who has been assisting Mariss in several productions this season. The programme, which includes a Lindberg premiere, is unchanged. More here.
My best wishes to Maestro Jansons! He is one of the last great men standing!
