The album was arranged by Dutch composer Henk de Vrijhel, born in 1953. Following the chronological order of *Das Rheingold*, *Die Walküre*, *Siegfried*, and *Götterdämmerung*, this unprecedented work masterfully condenses the moving and thrilling music of each opera into an orchestral arrangement. This album features a live recording of Pertkoski’s performance with the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra in Hong Kong in June 2025. The German newspaper *Tagesspiegel* described as “a talent of the century” and “Finland’s phenomenal conductor,” and who won the “Opus Classics” Young Talent Award in 2023, has been announced as the incoming Music Director of the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, effective the 2026–27 season.\n\nTarmo Pertkoski began studying piano at the age of 8, and his encounter with Daniel Barenboim’s recording of Wagner’s *The Ring of the Nibelung* at the age of 11 inspired him to pursue a career as a conductor. At the age of 14, he began studying conducting under the legendary Finnish educator Jorma Panula, and four years later, he enrolled at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki. He continued his studies in conducting and piano, and later joined Sakari Oramo’s conducting class. He also received guidance from Esa-Pekka Salonen and others, and thanks to this specialized training, Pertkoski’s study of the opera and symphonic repertoire became even more thorough.\n\n“Watch out—a genius has arrived! … Pertkoski possesses not only astonishing technique, but also energy, musical instinct, a sense of style, clarity of expression, and fiery dynamics—all of which leave the listener speechless.” —*Diapason* magazine\n*180g heavyweight vinyl, gatefold sleeve\nUniversal Music\/IMS\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dg Deutsche Grammophon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53082773651745,"sku":"28948688821","price":1013.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/28948688821.jpg?v=1785152969","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-mx\/products\/28948688821","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
