Saraste dirigiert Saint-Saëns und Beethoven
Alexander Malofeev | WDR Sinfonieorchester | Jukka-Pekka Saraste: Beethoven | Gordon | Saint-Saëns | Sibelius
Russian pianist Alexander Malofeev, who now lives in Berlin, is a rising star in the classical music world. He won his first international competition at the age of 13. Camille Saint-Saëns' Second Piano Concerto, with its pathos and sparkling virtuosity, is the perfect choice for Malofeev's WDR debut.
The concert on the radio: July 10, 2026, WDR 3

Unfortunately, Lionel Bringuier has had to withdraw from this concert project due to illness. The WDR Symphony Orchestra would like to thank its former principal conductor, Jukka-Pekka Saraste, who will take over the baton at short notice for the evening. This change at the podium is accompanied by a change to the programme. Instead of Albert Roussel’s Third Symphony and Ravel’s »La Valse«, as originally planned, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7 will feature on the programme.
