This concert is a regular season performance by the Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra, featuring Ken Takaseki as conductor and internationally renowned double bassist Edikson Lewis as soloist. The program opens with Schubert’s “Unfinished” Symphony, widely regarded as a masterpiece of music history. This will be followed by the premiere of a new double bass concerto composed by Toshio Hosokawa specifically for Edixon Lewis, a virtuoso of the Berlin Philharmonic. The concert will conclude with a magnificent performance of Richard Strauss’s symphonic poem “Death and Transfiguration,” which explores the themes of death and rebirth. This compelling program deeply explores the concepts of life and death, as well as the idea of artistic incompleteness. We invite you to experience firsthand the journey of music toward the attainment of beauty at the concert hall.
