Event has already taken place. Emotionally with the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, Gustavo Gimeno conductor and Alena Baeva violin.
Hear violinist Alena Baeva in Enescu’s unfinished gem, the fast-paced violin concerto Caprice Roumain with elements of Romanian folklore. From the same tradition stems Ligeti’s tribute to his homeland. After intermission, all emotions are allowed in Tchaikovsky’s saturated Fourth Symphony.
In the transitional period between the great empires and the establishment of nation-states, composers often found inspiration in folklore. Romania’s greatest musician Enescu was inspired by folk music for his exciting Capriccio for violin, here presented by violinist Alena Baeva.
György Ligeti lived in Hungary and listened to Bartók and Kodaly on the radio at a young age. At the local conservatory, Ligeti was taught harmonies, corrected in red pencil by his teacher until the assignment was perfect.
The evening ends with Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony, where the longing and melancholy melody of the oboe permeates the second movement. Here, too, there are folk tones in the lively finale.
The program takes the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra and the conductor Gustavo Gimeno on a guest performance at the Enescu Festival in Bucharest.
