Alisa Weilerstein heads to Munich to premiere Thomas Larcher’s cello concerto, returning into darkness, with the Bavarian Symphony Radio Orchestra (BSRO) conducted by Alan Gilbert (June 5, 6). Larcher, whose music has been praised as “one of this century’s wonders” (The Times, UK), composed the work for Alisa, who gave the premiere this past March with the co-commissioning New York Philharmonic.
This October, Artistic Partner Alisa Weilerstein reunites with members of the Trondheim Soloists.
On October 13, Alisa joins the ensemble in their native Trondheim, Norway.
Several days later, they appear at London’s Southbank Centre (October 16). Together, they perform R. Strauss’s Prelude for string sextet from Capriccio, Schoenberg’s Verklärte Nacht, and Tchaikovsky’s Souvenir de Florence for string sextet.
This fall, Alisa Weilerstein appears in performances with Gürzenich-Orchester Köln.
From September 29-October 1, Alisa takes the stage in Cologne to reprise Matthias Pintscher’s Un despertar, a cello concerto written for Alisa in 2016.
François-Xavier Roth conducts the program, which also hears works by Rameau and Mozart.
