The Basque National Orchestra proposes a new Season of concerts with the focus on front-line soloists and superb conductors
The Basque National Orchestra’s 2016/2017 Subscribers’ Season will open this year on 3rd October in Vitoria and close on 22nd June 2017 in San Sebastián. In this new season the Orchestra will offer 11 different programmes in each of its Bilbao, San Sebastián (double session), Vitoria and Pamplona venues.

Our lives march along with time. And that's where our #momentum comes to the surface, an instant when time seems to stop, a space to be still. A moment for emotion through music in a vertiginous society constantly on the move.

The Basque National Orchestra proposes a new Season of concerts with the focus on front-line soloists including Pinchas Zukerman, Katia & Marielle Labèque, Julian Rachlin, Enrico Dindo and Vadim Gluzman, and superb conductors such as Jun Märkl, Ari Rasilainen and Hans Graf.

The Basque Orchestra continues on its way to becoming the Country's major cultural-musical asset. It is a meeting point, through the different venues and cities in which it is increasingly present, and it is from this condition that it proposes and offers itself as a space for culture, reflection and emotion. Reflection associated to a variety running from October to June, to emotion with profound effect on the individual, connecting them to the Basque Orchestra project and making them grow as a person.

The Basque Orchestra, as this meeting point and place for reflection and emotion therefore invites the members of its audience, its subscribers and non-subscribers, and at the end of the day, all society to which it owes its existence, to discover and rediscover. To discover the new repertoire, new aesthetics and new works presented for the first time by the Orchestra, such as Elgar (concerto for violin), Hosokawa and Walton. And to rediscover others that the Orchestra has decided to revisit, like Tchaikovsky (4th), Schumann (2nd), Debussy's "Images" and also Escudero, with a new reading of his "Gernika" in the expert take on the work by José Ramón Encinar.
