Vogler, Philharmonia Orchestra, Rouvali at Kulturpalast Dresden

About the Event

Anna Clyne, a highly sought‐after composer, hails from England but currently resides in the United States. Her composition, "Dance," which was first performed in 2019, drew inspiration from the captivating lines penned by the 13th‐century Persian poet, Rumi. The emotional depth of this piece will undoubtedly be skillfully brought to life by the evening's soloist, Jan Vogler.

Edward Elgar's renowned work, "Enigma Variations," showcases his ability to capture the essence of those closest to him through fourteen distinct characterizations. Starting with his beloved wife, Alice, and concluding with a self‐portrait, Elgar's composition presents a touching reflection of his personal relationships. The performance at the esteemed Kulturpalast begins with one of Franz Liszt's captivating "Hungarian Rhapsodies." It is a program that seems tailor‐made for the venerable Philharmonia Orchestra, led by the charismatic Finnish chief conductor, Santtu‐Matias Rouvali.
