Who is Víkingur Ólafsson's favourite character in history? In our questionnaire, this year's focus artist first named his mother and then - Beethoven. Before and after that, Paavo Järvi conducts works from the 20th century that are just as popular with audiences as they are with orchestras: Arvo Pärt's "For Lennart in memoriam" was composed in 2006 for the abdication of Estonian President Lennart Meri. And Witold Lutosławski 's "Concerto for Orchestra" was already a success at its premiere in Warsaw in 1954: in it, the Polish composer short-circuited Masurian folk music and his own musical language - both effectively and profoundly.
