The Czech Philharmonic rarely presents two world premieres in a single evening, yet that is exactly the kind of program conductor Tomáš Netopil is preparing! In addition to Debussy’s The Sea, an emblematic work of musical impressionism, the evening will feature Teml’s Labyrinth of Memory and Blackford’s Cello Concerto. The concerto will be performed for the Prague audience by the well-known Alisa Weilerstein, to whom the composer dedicated the work.
