In 1990, having returned to Latvia after many years, Ķeniņš was deeply touched by the freedom restoration efforts in his homeland, as a result, he writes a composition in the concerto genre. This time it will be performed by the virtuoso Agnese Egliņa as the soloist. For Mozart’s concerto, the honour to perform the solo will be given to the master of the flute Tommaso Pratola, whose gentle and sonorous performance will enchant and captivate all flute aficionados. The concert also includes a Tchaikovsky suite that was written in honour of the 100th anniversary of the opera Don Giovanni as a dedication to Mozart, a brother of the quill Tchaikovsky deeply respected.  

PROGRAM:

  • Tālivaldis ĶENIŅŠ Concerto for Piano, String Orchestra and Percussion
  • Pyotr TCHAIKOVSKY Orchestral Suite No. 4 Mozartiana
  • Wolfgang Amadeus MOZART Concerto for Flute and Orchestra in D Major
