Philharmonia Orchestra debut March

Mar 4, 2014

This Sunday, March 9, Pablo Heras-Casado debuts with London’s Philharmonia Orchestra. The Spanish conductor begins his performance at Royal Festival Hall leading two works by Beethoven: the Egmont? Overture and the magnificent Fifth Piano Concerto, “Emperor,” with pianist Nikolai Lugansky. To close his inaugural concert with the British ensemble, Pablo conducts his signature account of Mendelssohn’s Symphony No. 3, “Scottish.”

Looking ahead, Pablo will give his first performance with the London Symphony Orchestra later this spring. The program of Ravel, Prokofiev, and Shostakovich takes place May 14 at Barbican Hall.
