Vladimir JurowskiAbout
One of the finest orchestras on the international stage, the London Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in 1932 by Sir Thomas Beecham. Since then, its Principal Conductors have included Sir Adrian Boult, Bernard Haitink, Sir Georg Solti, Klaus Tennstedt and Kurt Masur. From 2007–2021 Vladimir Jurowski was the Orchestra’s Principal Conductor.
One of today’s most sought-after conductors, acclaimed worldwide for his incisive musicianship and adventurous artistic commitment, Vladimir Jurowski is Chief Conductor and Artistic Director of the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin. He takes up the position of General Music Director of the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich in 2021, stepping down from his highly acclaimed 14-year tenure as Principal Conductor of the London Philharmonic Orchestra, to become its Conductor Emeritus.
One of the most sought-after sopranos in Europe, Judith Howarth has consolidated a strong public following. She first came to public attention when she joined the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden as a principal, aged just 21.
German soprano Anne Schwanewilms is recognised as one of the foremost interpreters of the works of Richard Strauss. Her extensive repertoire covers roles such as Arabella, Ariadne, Chrysothemis, Feldmarschallin and Empress but also Elsa, Elisabeth, Desdemona and Marie.
Recorded live at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall, London, 8 April 2017
