Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich

Víkingur Ólafsson's speciality is to immerse himself in a work or a composer. Following his fascinating world tour with Bach's 'Goldberg Variations' in the 2023/24 season, the Icelandic pianist returns to the Alte Oper for a major Schumann evening with the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich conducted by Paavo Järvi. Experience the celebrated pianist performing Schumann's Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in A minor. There could hardly be a better work to end this evening in style: Robert Schumann's serenely flowing 'Rhenish' Symphony - a showpiece for an energetic conductor like Paavo Järvi and his Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich - brings this concert to a lively conclusion.
