On 10 August 2026, Petr Popelka and the Vienna Symphony Orchestra will present a programme bringing together the present day, Impressionism, and vivid musical imagery. Bernd Richard Deutsch’s Intensity – a high-energy study of compression and movement, premiered by the Cleveland Orchestra in 2022 – will receive its Austrian premiere. Maurice Ravel’s second suite from Daphnis et Chloé takes us into a world of luminous tonal colours and refined harmonies. The concert ends with Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition in Ravel’s orchestration – an orchestral masterpiece of colour and emotion and a hommage to painting.
