In his sixth season as chief conductor, Kirill Petrenko is leading the Berlin Philharmonic on its 25th U.S. tour and second in three years. There are eight performances from Nov. 15-26 in Washington, D.C., New York, Boston, Ann Arbor, Michigan, and Chicago.

NEW YORK — Kirill Petrenko thought about the challenge of leading the Berlin Philharmonic, perhaps the world’s greatest orchestra.
“I’m 52 now,” Petrenko said during a Zoom news conference with U.S. media ahead of the tour. “Maybe my previous 10, 20 years were more connected with Mahler, also because of my Jewish heritage, maybe because I also am some sort of outsider — no home here, no home there. But maybe it will change and now I worked very intensively with this Bruckner.
“The touring is really important because we want to first meet our audiences,” orchestra general manager Andrea Zietzschmann said. “We are artists, and we have a strong ambassador role.” “I can trust, and I cannot mention things too much in the rehearsal,” Petrenko said. “Maybe just have a quick look on some occasions, not to stop rehearsal, not to interrupt the music.”“Originally, I came from Russia. Bruckner for me was absolutely -- I couldn’t even touch it. I didn’t know how to do it,” he said. “Then I came to Austria, and I had, so to say, my second childhood in Austria, since I was 18, and of course, there I heard a lot of Bruckner. I saw a lot of mountains, high mountains.
