Statement from Vittorio Grigolo
Dear audience,
I am saddened that Maestro Oren has had to withdraw from the concert. Of course, I fully understand that his health comes first. I wish him a good recovery and hope that he will soon be in great shape again.
I am very happy that Maestro Boemi was willing to step in for Maestro Oren, especially on such short notice. I have known Maestro Boemi for many years and, not only have we always had a wonderful collaboration, we also became close friends.
Thank you also to the entire team of NBS and to the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra for all their efforts and support!
See
you soon, I look forward to seeing all of you.
Vittorio
Grigolo
