There is no doubt that Emmanuel Ax has great experience giving world premiere performances of contemporary piano concertos: as early as 1988 he introduced Joseph Schwantner's Piano Concerto to the public, followed by new works from John Adams, Christopher Rouse, Melinda Wagner and Bright Sheng. HK Gruber's Concerto for Piano and Orchestra, however, is the first composition written especially for the virtuosic hands of the Polish-American pianist. Now this new work receives its Austrian premiere with the Vienna Symphony under the baton of Louis Langrée. On both evenings it is framed by Claude Debussy's Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune and the Symphonie fantastique by Hector Berlioz, a work considered to be the first example of Programme Music.
