City of Dreams, Esa-Pekka Salonen's 9-month exploration of the music and culture of Vienna between 1900 and 1935, opens in February. To begin your Viennese journey, visit our interactive series website where you'll be transported from your online coffee table to Vienna in 1900 through an extensive series of films, photos, paintings and interviews.
This month's podcast on the Sound Exchange is a Japan special. We speak to violinist Akiko Suwanai and find out more about Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto.
For our Japanese audience, the podcast can be viewed with Japanese subtitles here, and also includes an interview with Vladimir Ashkenazy.
We hope you enjoy exploring the site.
