A floating staircase and 2 1/2 -story tall window walls add drama to the living-dining area. Outside there's a garden courtyard, an outdoor living room with built-in seating and a swimming pool."
"Salonen, 51, led the Philharmonic for 17 years. He was its 10th conductor and had the longest term in the orchestra's nine decades. The Finnish conductor and composer now plans to spend more time composing."
Esa-Pekka Salonen, the former music director of the L.A. Philharmonic, has listed his Brentwood residence for $4.1 million. The six-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom home was designed by architect Ted Tanaka and features 4,695 square feet of living space. Notable architectural elements include a floating staircase, dramatic 2.5-story tall window walls in the living-dining area, a garden courtyard, an outdoor living room with built-in seating, and a swimming pool. Salonen purchased the property in 2002 for $1.516 million. The 51-year-old Finnish conductor and composer served as the L.A. Philharmonic's 10th conductor for 17 years, the longest tenure in the orchestra's history. He now focuses on composing and conducting, with upcoming performances including Janacek's opera at the Metropolitan Opera.
