"The headline feature of this terrific Petrushka is characterisation. It's a performance full of animation and incident." Gramophone Editor's Choice

Klaus Mäkelä's second album with the Orchestre de Paris from the series celebrating Ballets Russes scores. His previous two albums have achieved a plethora of 5* reviews and incredible physical and streaming success - over 16M streams and €400k revenue combined. His upcoming international concert dates and US Tour start on 14th March 2024, including Klaus' debut at Carnegie Hall on 16th March. This is Orchestre de Paris' first Carnegie Hall appearance in over 20 years. The programme includes Stravinsky's "Le sacre du printemps" and "L'Oiseau de feu".

"Mäkelä's gestures are freer and more flexible than ever, proof of the relationship of trust that exists between this extraordinary conductor and an orchestra that has never been so close." Festival d'Aix-en-Provence

"The headline feature of this terrific Petrushka is characterisation. It's a performance full of animation and incident and from the Orchestre de Paris and their impressive line-up of wind soloists a dancer's sensibility."
