“[Andrés Orozco-Estrada] is energetic and passionate, but also possesses genuine lyrical sensibilities and is exceptionally attuned to full orchestral textures.” – Triblive
“[Yuja Wang’s] combination of technical ease, colouristic range and sheer power has always been remarkable…” – Financial Times
There is perhaps no other musical ensemble more closely associated with the history and tradition of European classical music than The Vienna Philharmonic. In the past 176 years, the orchestra has experienced and influenced the course of musical history around the world. Even to this day, prominent soloists and conductors refer to the unique “Viennese Sound” as the outstanding quality that sets it apart from other orchestras.
Under the baton of the most sought-after Columbian-Austrian Andrés Orozco-Estrada, who has conducted many of the world’s leading orchestras including the Berliner Philharmoniker, the Staatskapelle Dresden and the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, The Vienna Philharmonic will perform Dvořák’s “New World” Symphony and the most virtuosic Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3 with megastar pianist Yuja Wang. Her technical prowess, keen musical insight and emotional depth have firmly established her place among the world’s leading artists.
