A new Penderecki

Bruckner, Brahms, Mahler, Schönberg - all of these composers have had their work premiered at the Musikverein, and the Society of Music Lovers in Vienna continues to set the tone where contemporary music is concerned. To mark its 200th anniversary, works have been commissioned from a number of leading composers, among these Krzysztof Penderecki. His Double Concerto for Violin, Viola and Orchestra receives its world premiere in the Musikverein on 22 October. Mariss Jansons conducts the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra. Soloists: Janine Jansen (violin) and Julian Rachlin (viola).
