Inte nog med att programmet är präglat av Frankrike och fransk musik, också den svenske dirigenten Anton Holmer har kopplingar till franskt musikliv: sedan 2021 är han assisterande dirigent vid Orchestre National de Lyon. Han debuterade med Kungliga Filharmonikerna vid en sommarkonsert 2022, och blev genast återinbjuden. 

Med Debussys sensuella skildring av en fauns uppvaknande uppstod musik som för evigt är inskriven i musikhistorien. Den musiken är inspirerad av en dikt av Mallarmé, och en liknande mystik och drömlik stämning finns i Henri Dutilleux mästerliga cellokonsert från 1970, inspirerad av Baudelaires diktning. Titeln talar om en avlägsen, förlorad värld: Tout un monde lointain. Den flerfaldigt prisbelönade franske cellisten Victor Julien-Laferrière debuterar nu med Kungliga Filharmonikerna.

Svenska Valborg Aulin (1860−1928) studerade i Paris, och i fyra satser – eller scener – skildras stämningar och händelser i den franska huvudstaden. Tableaux Parisiens blev hennes enda orkesterverk, men framfördes aldrig under hennes livstid.

Bolero är Ravels mest kända verk, ursprungligen balettmusik men oftare framfört som konsertverk. Bolero är en spansk dans i tretakt. Musiken består av en återkommande melodi och genomgående samma rytm – men vilken förbluffande orkestrering, och vilken uppbyggnad! Bolero blev en omedelbar succé – till tonsättarens egen stora förvåning.

Not only is the program characterized by France and French music, the Swedish conductor Anton Holmer also has connections to French musical life: since 2021 he is assistant conductor at the Orchester National de Lyon. He made his debut with the Royal Philharmonic at a summer concert in 2022, and was immediately invited back. 

With Debussy's sensual depiction of the awakening of a faun, music emerged that is forever inscribed in music history. That music is inspired by a poem by Mallarmé, and a similar mystery and dreamlike mood is found in Henri Dutilleux's masterful 1970 cello concerto, inspired by Baudelaire's poetry. The title speaks of a distant, lost world: Tout un monde lointain. The multiple award-winning French cellist Victor Julien-Laferrière now makes his debut with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

Swedish Valborg Aulin (1860−1928) studied in Paris, and in four movements – or scenes – moods and events in the French capital are depicted. Tableaux Parisiens became her only orchestral work, but was never performed during her lifetime.

Bolero is Ravel's most famous work, originally ballet music but more often performed as a concert piece. Bolero is a Spanish dance in three beats. The music consists of a recurring melody and the same rhythm throughout - but what a stunning orchestration, and what a build-up! Bolero was an immediate success – much to the composer's own surprise.
