THE BRANDENBURG CONCERTOS II & IV

THE BRANDENBURG CONCERTOS II & IV

The final Brandenburg Concerto programme is in the hands of Swiss conductor Maurice Steger, a dynamic musician whose talents are regularly in demand on four continents. Steger is also a virtuoso recorder player, in which capacity he stars in two of Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos (Nos. 2 and 4). Steger fills out his programme with a suite from a Handel opera (Almira, “music overflowing with genius and invention,” as one critic noted) and other intriguing works.

Italian Symphony

Roberto Abbado’s programme opens with Berlioz’s dazzling portrayal of Roman festivities and closes with Mendelssohn’s beloved Italian Symphony. In between, we hear a violin concerto by one of Italy’s best known composers, Nicolò Paganini, whose music for violin is known for its technical wizardry and virtuosic flair. Luigi Boccherini too was Italian but spent much of his career in Spain, where he received inspiration for his Night Music of the Streets of Madrid.
