Mirga Gra啪inyt臈鈥怲yla (conductor)

Powerhouse conductor Mirga Gra啪inyt臈-Tyla and the Oslo Philharmonic team up with maverick virtuoso Patricia Kopatchinskaja for Stravinsky鈥檚 Bach-inspired Violin Concerto 鈥� a ferociously demanding work that showcases all the violinist鈥檚 signature 鈥榖eauty, passion and imagination鈥�. Shakespeare鈥檚 warring families and passionate young lovers come to life in excerpts from Prokofiev鈥檚 Romeo and Juliet, and the concert opens with Norwegian composer 脴yvind Torvund鈥檚 symphonic poem 鈥楩orest Morning鈥� for orchestra and electronics, in which idyllic birdsong is gradually taken over by the sounds of traffic and urban bustle.
