BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Conductor

Tugan Sokhiev
Internationally renowned conductor Tugan Sokhiev enjoys close relationships with the world's most prestigious orchestras. In recent seasons, Mo. Sokhiev has been invited to conduct the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra on several tours in Europe and Asia, and had the honour of conducting the orchestra’s celebrated Sommernachtskonzert at the Schönbrunn Palace as well as the gala concert on the occasion of the 200th birthday of Johann Strauss II. This privileged relationship continues with concerts at the Salzburg Festival in August 2026, a tour of major European cities in September 2026 and the world-famous New Year’s Concert at the Vienna Musikverein.

Forthcoming highlights of the 2026/2027 season include return invitations to conduct the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Staatskapelle Dresden, whose highly popular Silvesterkonzert he conducted in 2023. Outside Germany, he will return to the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France and the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia as well as the Philharmonia Orchestra and Orchestre national du Capitole de Toulouse. In November 2026, Tugan Sokhiev will conduct three weeks of concerts for the 100th Anniversary of the NHK Symphony Orchestra in Japan.

Presenter

Vienna Philharmonic
There is perhaps no other musical ensemble more closely associated with the history and tradition of European classical music than the Vienna Philharmonic. In the course of more than 180 years, this orchestra has experienced and influenced the course of musical history around the world. Even to this day, prominent soloists and conductors refer to the unique “Viennese Sound” as the outstanding quality that sets it apart from other orchestras.

The fascination that the orchestra has held since its foundation by Otto Nicolai in 1842 for prominent composers and conductors, as well as for audiences all over the world, is based upon the conscious maintenance of a homogeneous musical style which is carefully bequeathed from one generation to the next, as well as a unique history and organizational structure. The pillars of the 'Philharmonic Idea', which remain valid even today, are a democratic organization that places the entire artistic and organizational decision-making process in the hands of the musicians themselves, and a close symbiosis with the Vienna State Opera Orchestra. Vienna Philharmonic statutes stipulate that only musicians from the opera orchestra can become members of the Vienna Philharmonic.
