Daumants LIEPIŅŠ – piano
Conductor Fuad IBRAHIMOV
Programme:
Ludwig van BEETHOVEN Piano Concerto no. 4
Ludwig van BEETHOVEN Egmont Overture
Antonín DVOŘÁK Symphony no. 9
The energy permeating Beethoven’s music cannot be experienced elsewhere. His scores are sharp and bellicose, yet just as often brimming with emotion and sensitivity. They are true and real, psychologically complex. The different facets of Beethoven’s work and personality shine through in his Egmont Overture, centred on heroic drama, while the Fourth Piano Concerto offers subtle sensitivity and intimacy, interspersed with Beethoven’s sharp, pointed harshness. The message of the Piano Concerto will be conveyed by pianist Daumants Liepiņš.
The universality of musical expression found in Antonín Dvořák’s symphony From the New World has made it into of the most popular opuses of symphonic music. Fuad Ibrahimov, principal conductor of the Baku Chamber Orchestra and the New Philharmonic Orchestra of Munich, at the podium.
