About

The 2020 MPHIL 360° Festival, a journey to 1920s Paris, kicks off with a feast à la française for the ears and eyes as Maestro Valery Gergiev and the esteemed Münchner Philharmoniker perform Debussy’s epoch-making Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune, which Boulez considered the starting point of musical modernity. Dynamite soprano Anja Harteros then takes the limelight for an immaculate rendition of Alban Berg’s Seven Early Songs—a cycle originally composed for piano and voice before Berg returned to them in his artistic maturity, over two decades later, to give them a full orchestral treatment.
