This week Stefan Asbury steps in to conduct the Boston Symphony Orchestra in three concerts (12 – 14 February), which feature the US premiere of Sir Harrison Birtwistle’s Responses: Sweet disorder and the carefully careless, with soloist Pierre-Laurent Aimard.

Earlier this season Asbury and Aimard gave the world premiere of the work with the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks at the Herkulessaal in Munich.
