Future simple

next season, I will return to the New York Philharmonic for three weeks, three very different programs, and we will make for the first time a tour together to the Far East.

So in the next season, the variety of music, it's Ah, wonderful for the audience we have Rite of Spring.

We have a piece by John Luther Adams, wonderful composer from the United States.

The piece which we are going to do is called dark Waves, and we do that together with the first act off calculus.

Then we have the malice Symphony number five, which is, of course, and I would say a very important piece in our starting relationship.

And then we have the two program where Eugene Wang is going to perform the Piano Concerto off Brahms with us number one we will play.

Also the Philip Glass Double Concerto for two pianos is a wonderful moment.

Tow putting me the spotlights and to celebrate this atheist birthday.

Introducing new pieces to the orchestra to audience to the world is very big d n a part off the New York Philharmonic and its audience.

So we should really drescher that and keep them.

I think in this case is that of course it is unbelievable.

I will say moment for us tow, Get to know each other better, to learn the names, to learn a little bit about their background.

I mean, it's still a little bit fresh and new, but I cannot wait to start a very personal relationship off course, also with the positions, because that is what reflects in the whole eventually.

But I still remember that Bernstein was conducting in Amsterdam, and after these concerts we went on tour and we went toe belling and the whole was a re down.

And then he said, I want to see I want to listen how the whole sounds now and you conduct the first movement off the Mala one.

And I was shocks because I never conducted a note in my life.

He said that was really bad, but still I saw something there.

I still remember that I went up and I felt like you are in the middle, right in the middle of the music in that moment Waas so influential E actually, for me, toe say Okay, I take it seriously.

I think performing miler, um with the New York Philharmonic gifts not only me, but every conductor an incredible responsibility.

A lot off conductors came after Bernstein and did Mal.

And still, I think that there is a lot off d n a still off Bernstein in the orchestra.

When I studied the Juliet school when I was 15 16 years old and the possibility was there to go to the New York Philharmonic, I would go there.

I still remember some some incredible concerts at that time.

 And I'm calling back now to New York as the music director of this orchestra Is something.
