A fortnight of French music (I)

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

Daniel Kawka, a conductor who knows and loves 20th-century music, conducts the Athens State Orchestra in a concert which pays its respects to French music and the organ. The “king of instruments” dominates Saint-Saens’ hugely ambitious Third Symphony and demonstrates its vast sonic range in Thierry Escaich’s fascinating First Organ Concerto, performed by the composer.
