great orchestras. Salonen will lead the Philharmonia in a remarkable program

embarked on a world-class career. h

The Northern idea of form is more of a process.

The various units of the form overlap. You can’t tell where

some things stop and new things start.

This is typical of Sibelius. – Esa-Pekka Salonen

The Warsaw Philharmonic is “one of the best-kept secrets in the business.” – Gramophone

the composer’s lyrical monument. hSusan Graham
