Sergei Prokofiev: Visions Fugitives op. 22, arr. Rudolf Barshai
Toshio Hosokawa: Piano Concerto ‘Lotus Under the Moonlight’
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Symphony no. 41 in C major ‘Jupiter’ KV551

Life is growth from small seeds to grand insights and vice versa. Prokofiev’s Visions fugitives point the way towards ancient Oriental philosophies. The lotus blooms rarely, and seeing its flower open is a landmark moment for those who can hear and understand. Tosio Hosokawa’s Lotus Under the Moonlight reflects the echoes of a Mozart Piano Concerto that ripple through history. Following this is a symphony that shares its subtitle with the grandest sight in our solar system – Jupiter. Its finale is a multi-layered triumph of harmony and counterpoint where great things are full of small things and small things contain the germs of everything that is great.

Pre-discussion in Tapiola Hall at 18:00: Astronomer Emma Mannfors will give a presentation on her research topic the birth of stars, followed by a discussion around the themes of eternity and youth.

The concert forms part of the programme of the Youth Festival.
