Tuba meets dance with hr-soloist Ole Heiland performing John Williams's light and melodious concerto, written for the Boston Pops Orchestra's centennial. Paired with Stravinsky's dynamic and provocative dance burlesque Petrushka, conducted by the spirited Tianyi Lu. Concert duration: 65 minutes without intermission.
Experience the radiant Spring feelings of a young deceased Frenchwoman, an early Beethoven defying fate with musical confidence, and hr-solo cellist Peter-Philipp Staemmler performing a vibrant modern cello concerto in Quick & Classy. Bulgarian conductor Delyana Lazarova will bring to life not only Lili Boulanger's touching orchestral music but also the dreamlike nocturnal world of Henri Dutilleux. Not to mention Beethoven's virtuosity, marked by sharp contrasts, which belies his despair over increasing deafness and isolation. Concert duration: approx. 70 minutes - no intermission!
