SUMMITEER
The solo percussion is still a newcomer in the well-established repertoire of classical music - and at the same time a very unique sound cosmos that shimmers in a thousand colors. The young Essener Alexej Gerassimez impressively brings it to life. The award-winning percussionist is a real all-rounder: he switches between genres with ease, masters jazzy grooves as well as the complex rhythms of contemporary classical music.

A perfect candidate for Finnish Kalevi Aho's sparkling percussion concerto. Aho called his work, which premiered in 2012, »Sieidi« – the Sami word for a sacred rock or mountain. The Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra then climbs to a symphonic peak in the second half of the concert: since its acclaimed premiere in New York in 1893, Antonín Dvořák's ninth symphony has been one of the audience's absolute favorites in the symphonic repertoire.
