Paavo Järvi and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra return to Europe in April 2008, performing 12 concerts in five countries, including a concert at the newly renovated Salle Pleyel in Paris and the esteemed Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. Two popular guest artists are featured on the CSO European Tour—the Dutch violinist Janine Jansen performing Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto in and Britten’s Violin Concerto, and the Russian pianist Nikolaï Lugansky performing Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3.
