The ѿý Symphony Orchestra on tour in Japan

Sakari Oramo conducts the ѿý Symphony Orchestra in Nagoya performing Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No 2 with soloist Yu Kusgue, and Mahler's Symphony No 5 with the ѿý Singers.

The ѿý Symphony Orchestra tours Japan in 2018! In a week that features the orchestra abroad, the afternoon opens with a concert at the Nippon Tokushu Togyo Shimin Kaikan Hall, in Nagoya. The orchestra's Chief conductor, Sakari Oramo, is at the helm to perform Rachmaninov's 2nd Piano Concerto, with Yu Kusgue as soloist, which is followed by Mahler's 5th Symphony. Then, a recording made by the ѿý Singers earlier this year at St. Paul's Knightsbridge, in London. Andrew Griffiths conducts repertoire from Eastern Europe across the centuries, including Dvorak's In Nature's Realm, Handl's Mirabile Misterium, Makor's Kyrie, Smetana's Three-Part Choruses for Women's Voices, Janacek's Ave Maria, and Martinu's Romance of the Dandelions.
