The Verbier Festival Orchestra, conducted by Charles Dutoit, performs Berlioz’s Roman Carnival Overture, which debuted as an independent concert piece in 1844 and was so successful that it demanded an immediate encore. Piano superstar Mao Fujita brilliantly showcases the dramatic opening, graceful Allegro scherzando, and fiery finale of Saint-Saëns’ Piano Concerto No. 2 in G Minor. The programme continues with Debussy’s symphonic triptych La Mer, inspired by the paintings of Turner and Hokusai, before flowing into a mesmerizing composition famous for its hypnotic rhythmic motif and unmistakeable orchestral crescendo: Ravel’s Boléro. Venue: Salle des Combins (Verbier, Switzerland) Broadcast date: Sunday, August 4, 2024
