Estonian conductor Mihhail Gerts makes his debut with the orchestra in an all French programme of Bizet and Ravel.
Under Ilan Volkov Finnish clarinettist Kari Kriikku performs 'D鈥檕m le vrai sens' which Kaija Saariaho wrote especially for him in 2009. It was inspired by The Lady and the Unicorn, a series of six Medieval tapestries. Each one depicts the five senses and an ambiguous 鈥榮ixth sense鈥� The movements of the work are titled accordingly: L'Ou茂e (Hearing), La Vue (Sight), Le Toucher (Touch), L鈥橭dorat (Smell), Le Go没t (Taste) and A mon seul D茅sir (To my only desire).
Volkov brings the afternoon to a close with Mahler's enigmatic and forward looking Symphony No 7 in E minor.
