Suntory Hall has been hosting Wiener Philharmoniker Week in Japan since 1999, giving the Japanese audiences a regular opportunity to enjoy this renowned orchestra, and this year is its twenty-first edition. At the helm will be Andris Nelsons, who is said to be “the busiest conductor in the world” and is regularly invited by top orchestras. This year’s soloists are pianist Yefim Bronfman, who is constantly in demand on the international stage, and MIDORI, one of the world’s leading violinists.
Furthermore, based on the common wish of the Wiener Philharmoniker and Suntory Hall for the “fruitful development of music culture,” a free open rehearsal, master class, and a school programme will be held. Also, Youth tickets will be available for the concert on November 16.
