April 19th(Sat)236th Yokohama Subscription Concert and 20th(Sun)176th Sunday Concert
Pietari Inkinen will lead the JPO.
♦First of all, please tell us your current musical activities.
This season I become Music Director of the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra beginning with a tour of New Zealand with cellist, Natalie Clein. Guest appearances include concerts with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, Phoenix Symphony, BBC Philharmonic, KBS Symphony Orchestra and WDR Cologne.
This time is your first visit to Japan as conductor. But as violinist you had already been in Japan. What was impression of Japan especially on musical front?
I found that the audience where very passionate and responsive to the music which made my experience very enjoyable and exciting.
It's planning to release your Sibelius CD from NAXOS label on April 9th. Needless to say, Sibelius is a representative composer of your fatherland Finland. What does Sibelius' music mean for you?
I have grown up with Sibelius, and he has been a great influence on my career and development as a conductor. Sibelius played a huge role in my education also, and without this, I do not feel I would be working to such a high standard with great orchestras.
♦For the Japan Philharmonic Orchestra, founded in 1956, Sibelius is very important composer. Because we recorded the world first all Sibelius' Symphonies in stereo. (With conductor Akeo Watanabe) This time you also conduct 2 Sibelius' works, “En Saga” and “Finlandia” What do you look forward to in your performance with JPO?
I look forward to the energy and passion of the orchestra and it's exciting to work with an orchestra that has been so involved with the recording the music of Sibelius.
♦What do you think about your program this time?
This is core repertoire for me and I am looking forward to performing it with the JPO in this climate, which I am sure the orchestra will play with real passion and energy.
♦What is the future for you? (Your next concert schedules.)
I have just taken over as Music Director of the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, and have many exciting touring and recording projects with them in the forth coming seasons. I am also guest conducting with orchestras including the Dresden Staatskapelle, Israel Philharmonic, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, and Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra.
♦Please give a message to Japanese audience.
The music of Sibelius is a very important part of my career which I am very passionate about. I am looking forward to sharing this and the Tchaikovsky with the Japanese audience who I know will be warm and responsive to this great repertoire.
Thank you very much for your corporation |

 Alexander LAZAREV will inaugurate as Chief Conductor from September, 2008. He was invited to give a guest performance with Japan Phil. numerous times.
[profile]
Alexander LAZAREV is one of Russia’s foremost conductors. He studied with Leo GINSBOURG at the Moscow Conservatory graduating with first class honors. In 1971 he won first prize in the Soviet Union’s national competition for conductors, and the following year went on to win first prize and gold medal in the Karajan Competition in Berlin.
From 1987 to 1995 LAZAREV was Chief Conductor and Artistic Director of the Bolshoi Theatre, the first person for over thirty years to hold both positions concurrently. His leadership marked a period of intense activity, with the Bolshoi Opera undertaking an unprecedented program of prestigious foreign touring including Tokyo (1989), La Scala, Milan (1989), the Edinburgh Festival (1990 and 1991) and the Metropolitan Opera in New York (1991). Several of the Theatre’s most successful productions including GLINKA’s “A Life for the Tsar”, TCHAIKOVSKY’s “The Maid of Orleans”, and RIMSKY-KORSAKOV’s “Mlada” were filmed for video and the Bolshoi Symphony Orchestra made a number of highly acclaimed recordings for Erato including such milestones of the Russian symphonic repertoire as RACHMANINOV Symphony No.2 and SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No.8.
In recent years he has worked as a regular guest with the Philharmonia Orchestra and the St. Petersburg Philharmonic, appearing with them in London, Paris and Vienna. Other orchestras he has conducted include the Berlin Philharmonic, Munich Philharmonic, Bavarian Radio Symphony, Royal Concertgebouw, Orchestra Filharmonica della Scala, Orchestra dell’ Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Orchestre National de France, Oslo Philharmonic, Swedish Radio Symphony, NHK Symphony, Cleveland Orchestra, Montreal Symphony and the London Philharmonic, and he has appeared with opera companies such as the Theatre Royal de la Monnaie, Brussels, the Arena di Verona, the Opera National de Paris, Bastille and the Bavarian State Opera.
He has been a regular visitor to the UK since his debut in 1987. From 1992-1995 he was Principal Guest Conductor of the BBC Symphony Orchestra, and from 1997 to 2005 he was Principal Conductor of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. His activities with them included complete cycles of the symphonies of SHOSTAKOVICH and PROKOFIEV, appearances at the Proms and extensive foreign tours.
His repertoire is particularly enterprising in its scope, ranging from the eighteenth century to the avant-garde. In 1978 he founded the Ensemble of Soloists of the Bolshoi Theatre whose most important aim was the programming and wide dissemination of contemporary music by both Soviet and foreign composers.
Alexander LAZAREV is a prolific recording artist - in addition to his recordings with the Bolshoi Symphony for Erato, he has made over 35 recordings for Melodiya, and has also recorded for Virgin Classics, with the BBC Symphony Orchestra for Sony Classical, with the London Philharmonic Orchestra for Hyperion and BMG, and with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra for BIS and Linn Records.
Engagements this season include L’amour des trios oranges at the Opera Bastille, Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk at the Grand Theatre de Geneve and The Rake’s Progress at the Opera Natkonal de Lyon. |
