II: ELTS AND RANDALU • Symphonic lunches

Toshio Hosokawa

Lotus Under the Moonlight (Hommage à Mozart)

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Symphony No. 39 in E flat, K. 543

KALLE RANDALU piano, ERSO, conductor OLARI ELTS

The soloist for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 23 will be Kalle Randalu. Randsalu recently performed all of Beethoven’s piano concertos with ERSO, but it is in fact Mozart whose music he has recorded and released on albums the most. ‘I have loved Mozart my whole life and when possible, I play his works again and again. He is the greatest gift, and not just for pianists, but for music lovers in general,’ Randalu told the newspaper Postimees in an interview. Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 23 is tied with another work to be performed by Randalu, Toshio Hosokawa’s Lotus Under the Moonlight, which is a homage to the beloved composer. We will also be hearing Mozart's Symphony No. 39 at this concert.
