“I have been called a futurist, a cubist, ultramodern and a man of extremes,” Ernest Pingoud told the Helsinki press, who found his radical tone language strange. Pingoud, who emigrated from St. Petersburg at the start of the revolution, served as General Manager of the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra from 1924 until his death. The evening’s first symphony is Thomas Adès’ surreal opera sequel to Luis Buñuel’s film “The Exterminating Angel”.

The concert begins with Leevi Madetoja’s rich contribution to the national Kullervo gallery. With its generous resonances, the harp is one of composer Kaija Saariaho's favourite instruments.

English

”Minua on nimitetty futuristiksi, kubistiksi, ultramoderniksi ja äärimmäisyysmieheksi”, parahti Ernest Pingoud Helsingin lehdistölle, joka oudoksui hänen radikaalia sävelkieltään. Pietarista vallankumouksen jaloista emigroitunut Pingoud toimi HKO:n intendenttinä vuodesta 1924 aina kuolemaansa asti. Illan ensimmäisessä sinfoniassa päädytään Thomas Adèsin kyydissä surrealistisille oopperajatkoille Luis Buñuelin Tuhon enkeli -elokuvan maisemiin.

Leevi Madetojan paahteinen panos kansalliseen Kullervo-galleriaan on juureva alku konsertti-illalle. Harppu anteliaine resonansseineen on yksi Kaija Saariahon lempisoittimista.

suomi

”Jag har kallats för futurist, kubist, ultramodernist och extremist”, utbrast Ernest Pingoud då han insåg att pressen i Helsingfors inte begrep sig på hans radikala tonspråk. Pingoud, som hade flytt undan revolutionen i Petersburg, var HSO:s intendent från år 1924 fram till sin död. I kvällens andra symfoni besöker vi tillsammans med Thomas Adés en surrealistisk efterfest hämtad ur Luis Buñuels film Mordängeln.

Konsertkvällen startar med Leevi Madetojas mustiga bidrag till det nationella Kullervo-galleriet. Harpan med sina rika resonanser är ett av Kaija Saariahos favoritinstrument.
