Jiri Belohlavek opens his second season as Chief Conductor of the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra with a new trumpet concerto by German composer Jorg Widmann, a vehicle for its dedicatee, Sergei Nakariakov, deliberately designed to stretch its soloist's virtuosity to extremes. Paired with this is Bruckner's monumental 7th Symphony, the work with which the 60-year-old composer first achieved international fame.
