Program:
Paolo Catenaccio / Grande Danse, Concerto for Cello and Orchestra, World Premiere – ORT Foundation Commission
Pëtr Il’ič Čajkovskij / Variations on a Rococo Theme, Op. 33
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart / Symphony No. 36 K 425 ‘Linz’
A new ORT commission opens the concert conducted by Balázs Kocsár, a leading figure on the Hungarian music scene, active in opera houses and concert halls throughout Europe.
The piece, still unpublished, is by Paolo Catenaccio, an Italian composer born in 1998, author of refined and terse music, often in dialogue with solo instruments and classical structures.
The commission, for cello and orchestra, will be entrusted to the interpretation of Alexey Stadler, a Russian soloist with a profound sensitivity, trained with Rostropovič and already applauded alongside Gergiev, Eschenbach and Currentzis.
Next are Tchaikovsky‘s Variations on a Rococo Theme, Op. 33 (1876), dedicated to the cellist Fitzenhage, who altered them. The original version, rediscovered later, better reflects the composer’s classical intent.
The Symphony “Linz” by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, written in a few days in 1783, closes: elegant, brilliant, one of the composer’s happiest symphonic inventions.
