Under his baton, the orchestra will play Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 7 and two compositions in the Czech premiere. This is Symphony No. 2 by Lepo Sumera and Hisaishi’s Variation 57. “It is a very popular concert, so far the most successful in this at the Janáček Theater. Personally, I think that this is a concert that should not be missed by the listeners, “said the director of the Brno Philharmonic, Marie Kučerová.
Hisaishi is best known as the author of film music, whose concert performances take place in large halls. “The Japanese do not hide their ambition to establish themselves as a serious composer. Hisaishi’s Variations 57 and Sumer’s Second Symphony will offer not only the opportunity to compare Japanese and Estonian minimalism, but also a strong, emotionally graded experience, “said playwright Vítězslav Mikeš.
