Concert Information

Esa-Pekka Salonen鈥檚 smaller-scale works reveal, as if under a microscope, his fascination with the intricacies of music. His 17-minute Dichotomie, which he wrote in 2000, is a fascinating creation that 鈥榙eploys aggressive but constantly shifting rhythmic mechanisms whose origins lie in Prokofiev, while its second [movement] seems closer to the flowing spontaneity of the Ligeti 脡tudes鈥� (Gramophone). It is a powerful addition to the modern piano repertoire and a highly rewarding listening experience.
