MESSIAEN Turangalîla-symphonie
French composer Olivier Messiaen was famously synesthetic, “hearing” colors as harmony and seeing colors in sound.
The Turangalîla-symphonie summed up the composer’s passions for nature, birdsong, Catholicism, Eastern philosophy, music, and romantic love as embodied in the legend of Tristan and Isolde; in this concert, Andris Nelsons leads this work that the BSO premiered in 1949 under Leonard Bernstein’s baton.
The brilliant Yuja Wang takes on the work’s hefty piano part and Cécile Lartigau performs on the ondes Martenot, an early electronic instrument.
Turangalîla was commissioned by Serge Koussevitzky.
