Music and Artistic Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin and The Philadelphia Orchestra will embark on a European Tour, October 27–November 5, 2023, as part of the international celebration of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 150th birthday. Rachmaninoff enjoyed a special relationship with The Philadelphia Orchestra that proved central to his artistic achievements as a composer, pianist, and conductor. He often said that he composed with the sound of the Orchestra in his ear.
Now, Nézet-Séguin and The Philadelphia Orchestra are bringing this historic partnership to Europe in nine concerts in four cities: Luxembourg, Luxembourg (October 27–28 at the Philharmonie Luxembourg); Paris, France (October 29–30 at the Philharmonie de Paris); Hamburg, Germany (November 1–2 at the Elbphilharmonie); and Baden-Baden, Germany (November 3–5 at the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden).
Pianist Daniil Trifonov—with whom Nézet-Séguin and the Orchestra have recorded the acclaimed “Destination Rachmaninov” albums on the Deutsche Grammophon label—will join as soloist.
Tour repertoire will include the composer’s Symphonies Nos. 1, 2, and 3; Vocalise; Symphonic Dances; Piano Concerto No. 4; and Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.
