On April 4, 5, and 11, Pietari Inkinen conducts the Deutsche Radio Philharmonie in concerts in Saarbrücken (Großer Sendesaal), Ludwigsburg (Forum am Schlosspark) and Kaiserslautern (Fruchthalle). The program features three monumental final works: Sibelius’s last large-scale orchestra work Tapiola, Rachmaninoff’s final Piano Concerto No. 4 with pianist Alexei Volodin, and Tchaikovsky’s last symphony, the Pathétique.

The concert series is titled “Waldgeister weben heimlich in dem Dunkel”, “Forest spirits weave secretly in the darkness”, referencing the mythical Finnish forest spirit, Tapio. With Tapiola, Pietari Inkinen concludes his Sibelius cycle with the DRP.
