Live broadcast from Copenhagen
Thursday, 9 September 2010 , 21.00

It is not at all simple to pack your bags and travel around the world in search of musical events. Leave days, expenses, the tiresome road… there are too many inconveniences! However, you can eliminate all of them by tuning in on Radio Romania Music, which, via the European Broadcasting Union, will be broadcasting live the most important concerts on the continent.

For instance, on September 9th 2010, during a live broadcast, you are invited to listen to the opening of the 2010-2011 season of the National Symphony Orchestra of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation in Copenhagen, an ensemble with more than eighty years of tradition which will be performing in one of the most spectacular European concert halls, opened for the public in 2009.

‘The combination between Thomas Dausgaard’s (the orchestra’s chief conductor since 2004) dynamism and innovative method of conducting and the fantastic concert hall has launched a new golden age for the Danish National Symphony Orchestra’, is written on the site of the ensemble which I invite you to listen to.

Another reason for doing so is the fact that the soloist will be American pianist Garrick Ohlsson, the first American to win the 1970 Frédéric Chopin International Competition in Warsaw. This time, Ohlsson will be performing the score of a famous concerto by Johannes Brahms – Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat major, Op. 83 and, during the second part of the evening, conductor Thomas Dausgaard will be offering us a symphonic poem – Richard Strauss’s Ein Heldenleben (A Heroic Life). An exquisite concert only here on Radio Romania Music.
