It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: who is Kirill Petrenko?

He's been conducting orchestras (mostly opera) in Germany for 20 years and is well known in Berlin where he is currently the music director of the Orchester der Komischen Oper Berlin.

I have two recordings conducted by him with his current orchestra. They are recordings of the Asrael Symphony and various other orchestral music by Josef Suk.

I'm looking forward to his tenure at the Berlin Philharmonic. Not only because I'm not much of a Simon Rattle fan, but also because Petrenko might actually let the orchestra expand their repertoire and play/record more music by unjustly forgotten/neglected composers like Suk.
