I went in Hesinki this week end from Paris, for this two concerts. A "dream come true program", really amazing. The Rite of Spring, la Mer and Salonen's piano concerto, 3 pieces to die for. The day after, Mahler 6 at the top ... By the way, loved Helsinki too.
Salonen's the best! This would've been a great concert! I wish I could've gone! :/. I hope I can maybe go to London to see Salonen with the Philharmonia orchestra sometime, that would be a real treat, and Rite of Spring, I love that piece! I've never heard him do Beethoven's 9th, although he's done it a few times here in Los Angeles, I've never heard it...I hope maybe he records with the Philharmonia orchestra some new stuff and then maybe that could be one of them. :P Ahh oh well.
