Esa-Pekka Salonen in conversation with Roman Czura. The Finnish composer and conductor was our special guest on a live event held at NOSPR the day before the premiere of his newest orchestral piece, the Sinfonia Concertante for Organ and Orchestra, haring with us some great stories and anecdotes...

If You wanna find out, when Pierre Boulez used the word "pretty" probably for the first time in his life , why "Also sprach Zarathustra" would sound fine even if conducted by an Orang-Utan, and which piece he started to sketch at a police station in Helsinki – You certainly are in the right place.
