About the event

Korngold! Stravinsky! Gershwin! Weill! – Chamber Orchestra of Europe
Vuonna 1981 perustettu Chamber Orchestra of Europe on yksi maailman arvostetuimmista kamarimusiikkiorkestereista. Orkesteri koostuu eri puolilta Eurooppaa tulevista huippumuusikoista ja se tekee yhteistyötä maailman johtavien kapellimestarien ja solistien kanssa. Orkesteria ja sen soittajia yhdistää rajat ja kansalaisuudet ylittävä musiikillinen näkemys. Chamber Orchestra of Europe on tehnyt satoja merkittäviä levytyksiä, joista suurimman osan klassisen levymusiikin instituutiolle Deutsche Grammophonille.

Chamber Orchestra of Europe palaa toivottuna Juhlaviikoille ja esittää monipuolisen ohjelman orkesteri- ja laulumusiikkia 1900-luvulta. Orkesteria johtaa Musiikkitalossa brittiläinen kapellimestaritähti Robin Ticciati, joka singahti kuuluisuuteen, kun hänet hälytettiin viime hetken korvaajaksi johtamaan Milanon La Scalan orkesteria, ja hänestä tuli nuorin koskaan oopperassa johtanut kapellimestari. Solistina esiintyy eteläafrikkalainen sopraano Golda Schultz, joka on saavuttanut mainetta maailman oopperalavoilla New Yorkin Metropolitanista Baijerin valtionoopperaan.

Chamber Orchestra of Europe esiintyi viimeksi Juhlaviikoilla 1998, jolloin orkesteri esitti Finlandia-talolla kaikki Sibeliuksen sinfoniat. Nyt festivaalilla on uusi mahdollisuus kokea elävänä yksi Euroopan loistokkaimmista orkesteritähdistä.

Founded in 1981, the Chamber Orchestra of Europe is one of the world’s most esteemed chamber orchestras. Comprised of top musicians from across Europe, the orchestra collaborates with leading conductors and soloists worldwide. What unites its musicians is a shared artistic vision that transcends borders and nationalities. The orchestra has recorded hundreds of acclaimed albums, many of them for the prestigious classical music label Deutsche Grammophon.

Returning to the Helsinki Festival as a highly anticipated guest, the Chamber Orchestra of Europe presents a diverse program of 20th-century orchestral and vocal music. The concert at the Helsinki Music Centre is conducted by British conductor Robin Ticciati, who shot to fame when he was called in at the last minute to conduct at La Scala in Milan, becoming the youngest conductor in the opera house’s history. The soloist is South African soprano Golda Schultz, who has graced the world’s greatest opera stages, from the Metropolitan Opera in New York to the Bavarian State Opera.

The Chamber Orchestra of Europe last appeared at the Helsinki Festival in 1998, performing all of Sibelius’s symphonies at Finlandia Hall. Now, festival audiences have another opportunity to experience one of Europe’s most brilliant orchestral ensembles live.
