 Salonen joins forces with a favorite collaborator and leads Scriabin’s Poem of Fire
Scriabin’s vision for Prometheus lays out the mythic tale of humanity receiving the gift of fire not just through mystical music but through an all-consuming work of art that draws on the audience’s senses. The Russian composer, who described himself as synesthetic, envisioned a color organ for the piece that would project various hues of light that he associated with each musical tone or chord.
In the first half, the LA Phil’s Conductor Laureate reunites with one of his favorite collaborators, violinist Pekka Kuusisto, for the world premiere performance of a new concerto by another of Salonen’s regular collaborators: composer Gabriella Smith. Afterward, he guides Debussy’s radiant, Impressionistic cantata, La damoiselle élue, with soprano Liv Redpath, mezzo-soprano Fleur Barron, and the voices of the Los Angeles Master Chorale.
