Mäkelä meets Víkingur Ólafsson

Víkingur Ólafsson is the acclaimed pianist who has been called Iceland’s answer to Glenn Gould. He now joins up with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, led by guest conductor Klaus Mäkelä, in the Swedish premiere of the young Finnish composer Sauli Zinovjev’s piano concerto, a work commissioned by the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra. We also get to hear Jean Sibelius´ Lemminkäinen Suite, a symphonic poem first written as an opera with mythologic setting.
