Description
A programme featuring masterworks of different times created under very different circumstances. With his Cello Concerto Saint-Saëns established himself as a renowned composer. The most delicate textures of Saint-Saëns's music allow the soloist to stand out effortlessly against the orchestra. As an expert for the French composer's works, Steven Isserlis is the ideal interpreter for this concert. Dmitri Shostakovich's Violin Concerto No. 1 is one of the declared favourite compositions of the Italian violinist Anna Tifu. Devoted to contemporary composers and Russian music, British conductor Marius Stravinsky, confronts these two masterfully composed concertos with the mesmerizing beauty of the Suite from Rimsky-Korsakov's opera “The Legend of the Invisible City of Kitezh and the Maiden Fevronia”.
The InClassica Malta International Music Festival is organised by the European Foundation for Support of Culture (EUFSC), led by Konstantin Ishkhanov, in collaboration with the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO).
