Concerto for Orchestra

The legendary Angela Hewitt continues her worldwide tour performing all of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s piano concertos as a complete cycle. In Oulu, she presents the effervescent Piano Concerto No. 16 in D Major, radiating youthful Viennese spirit. Belgium’s perhaps best-known contemporary composer, Frederik Devreese, made his name equally as a master of film music. His Benvenuta Suite pulses with decadence and fantasy, carried along by the rhythms of tango, habanera and waltz.

Béla Bartók transformed the music of Hungary into a gift for the entire world. His final – and by far most frequently performed – work is the Concerto for Orchestra, a landmark of neoclassicism. Striking solos pass from one instrument to the next for nearly forty minutes.

Head start at Restaurant Preludi at 18:00. Discussion of the forthcoming concert.
