Orchestre Métropolitain De Montréal, Nézet-Séguin & Kantorow

Ravel had been playing with the idea of a tribute to the Viennese waltz for twenty years. But Johann Strauss’ carefree Vienna was hardly recognisable after the First World War. So it may come as no surprise that La Valse disintegrates into an outpouring of ignorance that poses the question: “What now?” The Canadian Barbara Assiginaak’s Protected content also undergoes a transformation. Eko-Bmijwang follows the current of a river, hastened and slowed down by Mother Nature. Saint-Saëns’ Piano Concerto No. 2 with the pianist Alexandre Kantorow and Sibelius Symphony No. 2 complete the programme. Conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Montreal Metropolitan give you a well-deserved treat with this very fine programme.
