More dropouts: Paavo quits Berlin

Paavo Järvi has cancelled next week’s concerts with the Berlin Staatskapelle due to illness.

Chief conductor Christian Thielemann will step in with a different programme. Instead of Sibelius, Korngold and Nielsen, it will be an all-Mendelssohn concert with Spanish violinist María Duenas ‘gladly’ changing her concerto.
