With the EUYO, Gimeno will present a romantic program of Stravinsky’s Scherzo fantastique, op. 3, Strauss’ “Der Rosenkavalier” Suite and Ravel’s La Valse. Renowned violinist Renaud Capuçon will join them in a performance of Chausson’s Poème for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 25 as well as Saint-Saëns’s Havanaise Op. 83.
With the Concertgebouworkest Young, they will perform Francisco Coll’s Hímnica and Dvořák’s Symphony No. 9 in E minor, Op. 95 (From the New World). They are joined by acclaimed violinist Isabelle Faust for Beethoven’s Concerto for Violin in D major, Op. 61.
