Maurice Ravel’s ballet Daphnis et Chloé employs shimmering impressionistic colours to evoke an ancient love story, while Henri Dutilleux’s dreamlike Cello Concerto Tout un monde lointain … draws inspiration from Baudelaire’s poetry collection Les Fleurs du mal.
Both Thomas Guggeis, General Music Director of Oper Frankfurt, and cellist Maximilian Hornung make their debuts with the Berliner Philharmoniker.
