The Concert
The UAE National Orchestra shares the genius of three great Romantic composers: a feast of sunny good humour, virtuosic artistry, and the expansive beauty of deep emotion.
The evening brings these composers to life through the lively melodies and playful contrasts of an opera overture, the expressive range and brilliance of a violin concerto, and the warmth and richness of a full symphony. From soaring violin melodies to a triumphant orchestral finale, the programme reveals the distinctive character of each work.
Three composers, three voices, and an evening that moves from playfulness to passion, from the expressiveness of a solo violin to the full breadth of the Orchestra.
The Music
The programme celebrates World Opera Day with Rossini's wittiest overture, written to introduce the hilarity of The Barber of Seville.
Stunning Hungarian violinist Júlia Pusker makes her UAE National Orchestra debut with the Orchestra's premiere performances of Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto. In it, Mendelssohn wrote a highwire act for a true star of the instrument, punctuated with a witty and quicksilver orchestral accompaniment.
The concert concludes with Brahms's sunniest symphony, his second, providing a great and joyous journey made under clear skies, and one of the summits of music for symphonic orchestra.
Conductor: Umberto Clerici
