New Japan Philharmonic Regular Concert #673 <Triumphony Hall Series Unofficial

Finland's Olli Mustonen, known for his wide-ranging activities in conducting, piano, and composition, will be featured. An extraordinary talent, he was awarded the prestigious Hindemith Prize in 2019, which Daniel Barenboim also received in the past. In this performance, Olli Mustonen will play three roles in one: composer, pianist, and conductor. He will perform his own "Triptych," Beethoven's "Emperor," which he will play and conduct, and Mendelssohn's Symphony No. 3 "Scotland" in the second half. Mustonen says of Mendelssohn's works, "Like a great forest, no matter how many times you visit, listeners will find new surprises in its original details. This concert with the New Japan Philharmonic will be a rare opportunity to experience Olli Mustonen's versatility at its best. We hope you will discover a new fascination for classical music through innovative interpretations and passionate performances. The concert will be held at Sumida Triphony Hall, and the performance begins at 14:00.
